Thanks, this doesn't correlate to the 'pattern' in the official
imagewriter II Tech Ref manual......
(anybody that doesn't have a mini DIN cable w/ 4 & 8 connected inside:
remove left leg from IWII. jumper 4 to 8...)

   Great!  You can always jumper 4 and 8 on the end of the DE9.  As long as
they are jumpered, it doesn't have to be on the actual mini DIN8 connector
itself.  Most mini DIN 8 M/M cables have all 8 wires in them.  I used to have
MD 8 M/M cables that were wired 1 to 1, etc to use for switchboxes, etc..
