The minimum hook-up that will work is:

	2	3
	3	2
	6	20
	7	7
	20	6

(The printer doesn't need to see the signal from pin 20 (DTR) 
on pin 6 (DSR), but the PC _DOES_).

	I am informed by sa tech who should know that only _ONE_ end of
the wire attached to Pin 1 should be connected.  He said something about
"ground loops" if both Pin 1 & Pin 7 had wires connected . . .
