Need a pinout for the Mod I EI

I've got an odd problem.  My Expansion Interface is apparently blowing up
printers left and right.  Why?  I don't know, but I suspect that something's
wrong with the printer edge connector on the EI, or possibly the cable.  So
far, my Mod I has fried fuses on a Quick Printer I (remember this?  4.25" wide
electrostatic paper?), and two, count'em, two Brother CE-60's with IF-50 inter-
face.

So, if anyone can send me a list of what signals are expected at the printer
edge connector, I'd appreciate it greatly.  Perhaps I'd even be able to PRINT
something with my old clunker!
