Epson Equity Ie Q50188015-1 - Manual (Page 21)

The Equity Ie uses a 25-pin, D-shaped male connector, so be sure you have a
compatible cable (or an adapting cable that converts the 25-pin output to
9-pin output). To connect a serial device, follow the steps above for
connecting a parallel device.
You need to make sure the serial port is set up so it functions properly. If you
are using the port for a serial printer, you must also redirect printer output to
the serial instead of the parallel port. Use the MS-DOS MODE command
(or the Epson MENU program) to make these changes. See your MS-DOS
manual for instructions.
