Yes, you can't use a PC printer cable on an Amiga. It fits, but you really need to get one that doesn't have a connection to the power supply line that's on the Amiga printer port. I don't remember which in it is (14?) but I think you can clip it with a needle-nose pliers on the cable. Don't use that cable! It might damage the printer or the Amiga or both. I had a 1091 for a long time, they work fine. I had a special cable that came with the printer when I bought it four-five years ago.
