Yes it was Neil. Thanks for the offer, however I live in Holsworthy and
there is a very good computer shop here. As you say the leads are not
expensive so I will go there today and have a chat about it.

As another responder said, my next printer will probably be USB only and
there will not be any cable included so getting one now would not be a
waste of money.
