This is a cabling problem.  We've had success here in DOS with
the following:  out the 9 pin serial port on the serial/parallel
adapter connect an ibm 9-25 pin adapter cable then connect an
rs232 cable configured as shown in the hp manual, ie pins 2&3
crossed 1&7 passed through and 5&6 on the at end to 20 on the lj
end.  I'm told that the new manuals have further details and 
you might want to talk to hp directly:  800854 4031.  I've also
been trying to get a lj to talk to an AT running xenix and
this has provento be much more difficult.
