two steps forward one step back

[Kerry Hoath]

The 2+ has a 25-pin port on the interface card but
you can get cables that go from whatever to 25-pin. Does t he scanner have 25-pin female
on the back of it? I have seen cables that go from centronics
to 25-pin no worries in fact I have one hear for my HP 3P.

Regards, Kerry.
