Yes, as a matter of fact one of those cables I was building for a coworker
was to hook up his Mac+ to a funny serial/parallel box he got that in turn
drove a Centronix interface version of an ancient Apple printer he had from
his Apple ][ days.  The three wire cable worked fine.

When he comes in later today I will get the specifics and Email them to you.
