You need a IIc to ImageWriter I (not ImageWriter II) cable
plus a gender changer.  For software, you need ProTERM 3.1
from http://www.intrec.com/ Intrec.  The cable can be found
at http://www.allelec.com/ Alltech Electronics.

Printer cables are modem cables plus null modem converters.
That's why this works.  You need the gender changer to make
the cable fit the PC serial port.
