Took me a while to unearth my HPColorPro Plotter it is a 7440 I
believe but I use a Winline 7475A Driver to drive it. I have taken apart
the cable (It has a lable attached says "AT Serial 9-25").
Connections are
25pin M to 9 pin F
2-----------2
3-----------3
6-----------4
20----------1
5 to 8 6 to 8
Which is to be expected & there is a Large Friendly lable that I stuck
on the front of the plotter reminding me to set the Comport to Hardware
control, The Dip switches are set to 9600Baud etc & to be a Serial
interface not a HPIB one
I actually got the cable with my Mutoh Lg Format Plotter but this
cable does work (I've just sent a illustrator file to it (quick & dirty))

I hope this helps.
