Gracia, It can depend on the box as much as the printer. Some cheap boxes don't use all th conductors, are poorly grounded, and have the wrong kind of switch (I think make-before-break is the one to avoid, but don't quote me on that). You gotta just try a few. And they may look the same on the outside, but end up real different in performance. I've been though this with 15 pin monitor switches and both 25 and 9 pin switch boxes with FFV, PSFC and AmiLink. wmc – via Autopilot!
