Is there a generic name for that type of connector? They've always struck me
as pretty robust, and aside from the 36-pin and 50-pin (SCSI) varieties my
Osborne Executive uses a 24-pin for the printer/IEEE port, and I think I've
seen them as small as 10 pins or so...

Does anyone know which Centronix ( sp?) printer the
36 pin connector
for parallel printers became standard?
I think it was the Centronics 770. It had severe problems though,
Centronics had to pull it from the market and thats when Epson jumped
into the market
