Mac printer cable on IIc+




I was in an office supply warehouse and came across a Mac printer
cable that's designed to be used with an Imagewriter I.  I was
wondering if it is possible to use this same cable on an Apple
IIc+.  I know I can use the same type of modem cable, but I'm not
too certain if the same applies for the printer port.
 
Also, is there a cable/interface I can buy/make/modify to use the
IIc+ with a regular centronics (36 pin) interface?  I'd like to
hook it up to an Epson MX 80 and maybe a Prowriter 8510.  I know
the IIc+ modem and printer ports act like a regular serial
interface card, I was just curious if it can be reconfigured to
be used on other types of printers (besides Apple Imagewriter,
DMP, etc...).
 
If someone could reply, preferably e-mail, I would appreciate it
greatly.  Thanks.
