Bingo. There is a DMF-32 h/w book. The last appendix says the
strobe pin out for the parallel interface is pin 37. Our local h/w
guy went fishing and found it to be pin 8. A jumper proved the scope
was right; data came forth like a gentle spring rain. Once the cable
is fixed we will have a real printer!
Since no one has replied to my original query, I can't thank anyone.
Maybe this information will be useful to other sites, however. Maybe
DEC will get the documentation fixed as well. I have informed TSC of
the documentation error. Hope it propagates to the right places.
