It has a 25-pin female socket & my pc has a 9-pin male so my old 
standard modem cable fits the bill...it just doesn't work. Someone has 
suggested a 'null modem' cable which reverses the transmit/receive pins 
so I'm waiting for that to arrive. X-rite have a page on cables but it's 
rather confusing. I think I require the 881-91 type cable which it 
describes as "DB9s Null-Modem Adapter; CTS/RTS handshake".
