Your wiring should be something like this, with the addition of 5Volts supply to the BoB (not sure about using a BEC as I have never tried that).

I think it will work the BEC is rated for over 25v , does the 5v for the b.o.b go into the p14 ?Where does the ground go from the BEC ?

You are making progress.

Try selecting Step Low Active for your X axis (Motor Outputs) and see if that makes a difference.

Also measure the voltage on your Parallel Port X axis Direction pin (between pin 3 and pin 25) it should change between approx. 0 volts when jogging in one direction and 5 volts when jogging in the other direction. If it only changes between approx. 0 volts and 3.3 volts then that may be the issue.

That's more progress.  ;)

I think you need to sort out that keyboard problem before you proceed.

Could be your keyboard, other connected USB devices or your PC.
