Regarding finicky DeskJet 500:

One of the most common DeskJet problems with Centronics IO is due to the
difficulty in connecting the cable to the rear of the DeskJet.  Make sure
the cable is firmly seated in the connector and make sure both locking
connectors are firmly connected to the cable.  This sounds like your problem
to me.
