Check your steps per unit. See if one of them is set to zero. If it is set to zer change it to 20000.

See if that helps

If the DRO's are moving there are pulses going out the printer port... So I am at a loss of what your problem could be at this point. So please post your XML and I will see if I can see a problem

Thanks
