Probasbly just looking for modem (DTR CTS) signals.
Make sure that the connector (25 pin) has pin 4 jumpered to pin 5
and pins 6,8, and 20 jumpered together. Also make sure that the
device at the other end of the wire can accept non stop at 9600 baud
or else 1) signal using dtr signals 2) use Xon/Xoff and sending PC
use software spooler that handles Xon/Xoff 3) Lose data.

go for it.
