Hmm, yep, I think you are correct.
In that case it would be a 26-pin Dual Row IDC connector:

Isn't that connector for the printer side of the cable ? I assumed he was

Yep, it is a 36-pin centronics connector:

I was in the book store yesterday and picked up one of those little

scary clamps, but one with a smaller, dainty clip.
I thought I might have it do double-duty illuminating an M100 screen from
above, but there doesn't appear to be anything suitable on an M100 to clip it
onto. Then I thought, maybe I can plug something inert into the printer port,
like a very short, unpopulated circuit board. (The serial port is occupied
already.)
Can anyone tell me what the connector for the printer port is called? I assume
that once identified, I can buy it online, since I'm a long way from the
(last?) Radio Shack in Wisconsin Dells.
