You could wire the home switches to 10,11,12 and then use softlimits instead of switches.

Check that the parallel port IRQ is correct, go to hardware settings and check the LPT config.

Go to Diagnostics screen and check the pulse rate is not Simulated.

When you power the board on you get a power led and a status led on? If status is off put 5V to EN connection.

You have board set for pins 2 - 9 as OUTPUT

You have the board set for common GND so then pins 2 and 3 go to stepper driver PUL+ and DIR+ and PUL- and DIR- go to COM on the board.

A photo of the set up may help, what drives and breakout board are you using etc.

First thing to check is if you are getting a change in voltage on the Dir inputs on the drives, using the keyboard arrow keys you should see the dir change as you change axis direction.

Are you sure you have the clock and dir the right way round?
