Subject: Re: HP 9830A always turns on with blank display
If you have the machine and the 9866A printer you basically have 2
options. Bite the bullet and buy a couple of the plugs and wire them
together. Or wait for a cable to turn up on E-bay and hope it doesn't
sell for more than the cost of 2 plugs. The formwer is generally easier...

That's what I will do.?? I think the ITT-Cannon KPT06F14-19P will fit.? I
can't find just the right connector on Ebay, but it looks like Avnet has them for
prices comparable to the Ebay new part prices, so I ordered 2 of those.? Hopefully this
weekend I will get to work cleaning the 9830A and fixing the power-on reset, and next week
get the printer attached.? Very exciting!
