Dick,
Is the pin-out correct for this use of the 25 pin cable?  A cable wired for
serial connection will not work.
This pin out may be correct, it is from read.me for tranxit:
   g.  The parallel cable must be LapLink(R) compatible and have male
                  DB-25 connectors at both ends. If you are not using a LapLink
                  parallel cable, make sure the cable is configured with the
                  following pin connections:

                            25 Pin             25 Pin
                            -------            -------
                            Pin 2     (---)    Pin 15
                            Pin 3     (---)    Pin 13
                            Pin 4     (---)    Pin 12
                            Pin 5     (---)    Pin 10
                            Pin 6     (---)    Pin 11
                            Pin 15    (---)    Pin 2
                            Pin 13    (---)    Pin 3
                            Pin 12    (---)    Pin 4
                            Pin 10    (---)    Pin 5
                            Pin 11    (---)    Pin 6
                            Pin 25    (---)    Pin 25 (Ground-Ground)
