   Connecting Tandy DWP-210 to modern PC

   Hi all,   
      
   I am attemping to connect a Tandy DWP-210 to a modern PC.   
      
   I have heard it is possible to take a standard IBM centronics to db25   
   connector and remove PIN 33 from the adapter.   
      
   However, this youtube (https://youtu.be/reXPAv1I1Co?t=115) clip says cut pin   
   18.   
      
   I was hoping I could use a centronics to USB adapter to connect the printer,   
   but I do not want to fry anything.   
      
   Can anyone provide clarity on this issue?   
      
   Cheers,
