MPC 2500 - B&W and Color

[phabran]

Just cutting the edge didn't work. We compared and tested both cyan and yellow connectors and the pins order doesn't matches. Changing the pins order and it's done! Working fine!

I think your referring to the next generation of models up the mpc2500/3000/3500/4500 all have same pin configuration, the next generation of models mpc2800/3300 has the last 2 pins switched.

Or maybe Europe has swapped pins on the 2500's?

[CableGuy]

What part number ( drum Unit ) did you use, just out of interest? The pins don't need to be swapped here in the UK, which I guess is the same for the rest of Europe.

In deed, the test we did was on a MPC2800. Perhaps 2500 is the same. I will confirm tomorrow.

no need to swap pins on the 2500.

this is to funny i love it, the dyke thing that is, but this info is very useful, I thought that there was no difference except about 275.00 dollars, and the connector.
