Hi Allan,

I think I have what you need, see attached photo.  It's yours if you 
want it, but I wasn't planning to come to the meeting.  I'll be in town 
for a meeting at the Emergency Operations Center (next to the county 
jail) tonight at 7:15 so perhaps we could meet up somewhere.

(Even though you do spell your name wrong.  :=)

This type of parallel port is a lot smaller than the old bulky type but never really caught on.  I've uploaded a picture of the back of the printer to: http://sonic.net/~ac/images/HP3150back.jpg
