Please accept my apologies for giving the incorrect cable for attaching the ImageWriter I to the more modern Macs. (the price sheet we use at my place of work was wrong) I do have it straightend out, though, but it might be cheaper to just make your cable, now. You can use the M0199 cable as I had suggested, but Apple expects that you already have and also use the M0150 cable which (they say) should have come with the ImageWriter I printer. You can then use both cables together to get a functioning connection. The price on the M0150 is a more pricey list price of $50. Sorry for the confusion. I didn't have a cable around to look at.In fact, I still don't have any cables, but I do have it on good authority that this will work. Tonya Byard, Cornell University

Well, they cheap old way to connect a modem to a Mac was to use an
ImageWriter I cable; so maybe you should try a modem cable, which
can be as little as $6.

A modem cable will not work unless you use an appropriate "null modem" adapter as well. Apple sells an 8 pin din to 9 pin db25 cable that will let your imagewriter i attach via the old imagewriter i cable. SE/30 --adapter cable-- imagewriter i cable -- imagewriter.
