I current got a Wang LPS8 Laset Printer. It was used for  Wang
mainframe computer. The menu only describe how to connect to
mainframe by using BNC and TNC connector. There is another one 25-pin 
connector, but the menu didn't say what kind of interface it is. I
guess it is serial port. However, I bought a Female/male 25 pin 
cable to connect it to PC. It doesn't work.

Is anybody there have experience of using this kind of laser printer?
Pleae e-mail to me if you have any information about it. Thanks in 
advance for your help.

-Steven
