Probably is. When IBM started using DB-25 for serial ports, they made them 
the reverse of parallel ports : on the computer, parallel is female, 
serial is male. So, it looks like a parallel port. However, some other 
devices were made to use DB-25, in ways that are not at all pin-compatible 
with parallel nor serial. It was a generic plug not designed for any 
use in particular.

BUT, by looking at the tech manual, it seems that the only DB-25 port that 
they mention is a serial port (curiously, the same pinout is found 3 times 
in the manual). So, it looks like it's a serial after all ! 8-(
