This is the reason I bought the Edgeport for my husband. I know without a
doubt that it will work, and besides I don't want to wait for Enabling
Technologies because it seems like a long time since Jim and Terri ordered
their products and I'll get my husband's next week.

Dear KC,
I want to use my embosser with my Mpower. It only has a parallel and
serial
port. The serial port won't work because the cable that goes with the MP
is
a null modem cable and the embosser requires a rs232 cable. The embosser
also has a female plug.
That's why I must use the parallel port. The parallel port is the best to
use anyway. I don't want to pay--no, I WON'T pay $235.00 for the
HumanWare
USB to parallel converter. When I learned Enabling Technologies has an
Infrared to Parallel converter for $62.00 plus $10.00 shipping, I ordered
one. I HOPE it will work with my embosser.
The "garden variety" USB to parallel converters in the regular stores
won't
work with the BN.

: Hi Karen and Terri,
: excuse my ignorance. I'm just curous as to what use a new M-Power user
would make ofthe USB or Infrared cable? I understand one can be used with
a
cellphone. From information gleaned from this List, Iu nderstand, if
you
want to hook an emboseser to your BN, you might need a USB/paralel
connection.
