I have a diablo manual handy (but no diablo - I've been writing an
emulator!) and have had a look. The only 15-pin connector (I take it a
db15 is the same as a D-15) is the one for controlling the optional
cut sheet feeder. It is around half-way across the back of the
printer, near the top. Is that the one?

If you still want the pinout, let me know.
