Hmmm... usually Umax scanners have one DB25 and
one Centronics50 connector on them. I.e. I
could use this cable "as is" to plug directly into
such a scanner's DB25 port. (I should verify that
on the scanners that I have...)
The problem is getting it to connect to the HD50's
that are so much more common in my equipment...

I just need to know if such a thing *exists*.
It's frustrating to go looking for soomething
only to discover that it *doesn't* exist!
(since there is no way to know, a priori if
it does NOT exist... but, you can find someone
who *has* one and thus deduce that it *does*!)
Thanks!
