I saved the following response from Charlie Brett (HP Ft. Collins)

posted after a similar question:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Sorry, but if you have the DB-9 female connector on the back of you 300,

it is not the same pinouts used on a PC. There is a cable (I thought was

shipped with all the systems) that connects to the 9 pin and gives you a

DB-25 female connector. It is wired for DTE and the HP part number is

98561-61604.

For those of you who want to know the pinout for the 9 pin

built-in RS-232 connector on the 320, 330, 350, ... Human Interface,

here are the connections:

Pin Number Equivalent Pin Number Signal

on 9 Pin Conn. on 25 Pin Connector Name

1 20 Data Terminal Ready

2 2 Transmit Data

3 3 Received Data

4 4 Request To Send

5 5 Clear To Send

6 6 Data Set Ready

7 7 Signal Ground

8 8 Carrier Detect

9 22 Ring Indicator

Outer Shell 1 Physical Ground

The pinout for the 345/375/700 is the same as a PC. They are:

Pin Number Equivalent Pin Number Signal

on 9 Pin Conn. on 25 Pin Connector Name

1 8 Carrier Detect

2 3 Received Data

3 2 Transmit Data

4 20 Data Terminal Ready

5 7 Signal Ground

6 6 Data Set Ready

7 4 Request To Send

8 5 Clear To Send

9 22 Ring Indicator

Outer Shell 1 Physical Ground

Note: There is an adapter that will convert the "new" PC style

connector to the the "old" Series 300 style. The HP part number

is 98574-61606.
