[zeeman1243]

Hello all....sure do hope someone can help....

I know this is an old setup...but need the correct setup for connecting a OKIDATA 590 printer to a system via a Digiboard PCXEM concentrator, using DB25...Can anyone help??

Try pins 2,3,&7 straight thru. This is a basic pinout for data. Then you could swap 2&3.Then you could jumper 6,8,&20
on 1 end. There are many permutations.
Being a ex-printer tech I had some tools(break-out box,printer test box,diagrams,etc).
Do you have a any docs for the printer ?
