The need AppleLine cables has finally been met (if you don't mind
the AppleLine under your Macintosh Plus or Macintosh SE) by Product
A9M0333,the Apple IIGS Adapter Cable.
The Adapter Cable is a female DB-25 with a circular 8 on one end. The only
drawback is the cable's length (about 8 inches). Removing the screw and nuts
from the cable lets it fit fully into AppleLine's unusual male plug,
eliminating the need for a gender bender.
If the cable length is a problem, then Product A9C0314, the Apple II Printer
- 8 Cable (smoke), is the answer. It has a male DB-25 (requiring the gender
bender) along with the circular 8.
Note: While AppleLine is, logically, located on the Macintosh price list,
both of the above cables are listed only on the Apple II price list. You
will have to refer to both price lists when ordering this
equipment.
