It's a SCSI-2 half-stroke, not a Centronics.

I read an interesting bit of trivia - supposedly Centronics' patent 
has never been challenged, is still held.... and they've never 
received a penny.

I sent a private reply to someone a while ago and forgot to copy it
to the list - an adaptor to allow you to connect the male DB50 pin
at the end of the Panasonic KXL720 cable to a female centronics can
be had for about $25 from Cables America. Interested parties  can
look for their ad in Computer Shopper or call 800-555-1212 and ask 
for their 800 number.
