I am most grateful for (and surprised by) this L. I did have a fiddle
yesterday and saw that it was a printer port plug in fact... But did not
plug it in. I tried to install the Wacom downloaded software but the
installer froze and so I decided to go no further!

The power plug that came with it seems to me to be  a zip one (5V) but the
Wacom says on back, 9 to 12V so maybe the wrong brick was supplied with it
(I do not complain, it was part of a big "job-lot"), I do have some 9V
bricks lying around though but you have frightened me sufficiently and I
don't need it so badly...
