Epson LQ-300+ Dot Matirx Printer

Hello all, Can anyone help me out?
i have purchased a dot matrix printer on Ebay and unfortunately it has arrived without any cables, this was not stated on the listing and the seller has not contacted me after i sent an email requesting information on what and where i can purchase such cable.

Anyway, i need a cable to connect to the back of my computer, the lead i need must have 13 pins across the top and 12 across the bottom, it also has a screw hole each end. Does any one know what this type of connector might be called? I also need a power cable but that will be mush easier to get.

Thanks for any ideas!

Sounds like you need a DB25 Data Cable e.g. here
You could download the user manual for the printer for more info.
