- Port #1 on the HU-961 is your printer port. This port is a serial port for a serial
printer. On Page 8 of your HU-961 manual, item #7 details the setting for your
serial printer. Your printer should set at 8 data bits, no parity, one stop
bit and 1200 baud. The cable that you use to connect a
serial printer to the HU-961 needs to be a DB9 female to a DB25 male and
must be an AT to Hayes Modem. This is a null modem cable. Pin 2 on the 9 pin
plug goes to Pin 3 on the 25 pin plug and Pin 3 on 9 pin plug goes to Pin 2 on the
25 pin plug.
- If you do not have a serial printer, you can use a parallel printer. However, to do
this, you will need a serial to parallel converter setup for 1200 baud, 8 data bits, no
parity and one stop bit. This converter normally plugs directly into the parallel
printer. The cable used to connect the converter to the HU-961 is a DB9 female to a
DB25 male AT to Serial Printer. This cable is a straight through
cable which means Pin 2 on the 9 pin plug connects to Pin 2 on 25 pin plug and Pin 3 on 9
pin plug connects to Pin 3 on 25 pin plug.
