Tim and others using this cable,

Make sure you identify the correct "pin 1" the parallel port cable is 
flipped with the cable pin 1 at pin 26 of J16 [right next to the speaker 
jack] so there would not be any actual "pin 1" connection.  Look at the 
red stripe and the notated TAPR board pin 1 location.

Do not know where the 30 pins come from [perhaps their BOM]. !  There 
are only 26 holes on the board !

The Digikey # that Abhi referenced A33185-ND is a 26 pin device.
