The Okimate 10 uses a serial connection designed for computers without a
parallel port, such as the Commodore. There are interface cables made to
allow such a computer to communicate to a printer with a standard centronics
connector. However, I have never seen a way to do it the other way around
(but such a beast may exist, FAIK). A more likely scenario is to find an
adaptor to allow the Okimate to interface with a PC's serial port.

Subject: Okimate 10
I would like to inquire about the printer's cable connection. Will it
accept a standard centronics cable? I would appreciate any information
that you can give me regarding this matter or any information that you may
have about the availability of an Okimate 10 module that would allow
connection with a centronics cable.
--Thank You--
