Need help - Nortel Flash printing reports

I have a Nortel Flash voicemail unit circa 2001, with software version: N* Flash 2.0.10.

Anything I should know about the printer port on the module?

The Operation Guide mentions an RS-232 (serial) port on the module for connecting to a terminal or printer. On the module I see a DB25F connector, which suggests it is really a (parallel) printer port. I tried to connect a printer with two different printer cables (DB25-to-C36) but had no luck with the printing.

If this port can be used to attach to a PC using a null modem cable and some terminal software, the connector on the Flash module doesn't seem to fit the profile, i.e. DB9.

Thanks.
 
Maybe this should have been posted in the Nortel Norstar forum.

Sorry about that.
