teach me to use periods....anyway.
If your cable works ok with a pc link, then it will not typically be ok as a
printer or modem cable, you'll need a "nul-modem" adapter/cable to use it for
printing....
I had the zpda-db9 cable for pc transfer. Now I have the zpda-db25 modem
cable, it needs a nul-modem adapter to use for up/download.
