Hello!
You can check where you purchased your Index. If they can't help, call
Enabling Technologies and they can get you the appropriate adapter.
I wrote a post on this some time back so I'll try to retrieve it again. Or
go to the www.brailler.com site and this item is under new products. You
will need Adobe acrobat reader to read the text of the notice.

Hi,
You mentioned a bluetooth adaptor. As I'm a massive fan of bluetooth due
to freedom of no wires, grins, is it possible I can get one that will fit
my Index Basic embosser, or will the adaptor work in any printer/embosser
that has a parallel port? Thanks for any help.

I use the Enabling Technologies Embossers. You may need to get a
bluetooth adapter which connects to a parallel port or the infrared
adapter which connects in the same place. I'm surprised the USB port
doesn't work but then maybe turning both devices on and off again might
get it to work. That is the best I know for the moment.

Dear brailleNote Listserv,
I just received a new embosser, the Tiger Max. This is the embosser that
is able to emboss both standard Braille and in additional do graphics.
Of course, the graphic portion of it would need to be done using a PC,
as the BrailleNote does not support graphics, because of the filteration
of the KeySoft platform.
Here is the problem I am having with the Tiger Max embosser. I am able
to use the drivers and such that came with the embosser to install it
onto my laptop and have the two devices up and running. By the way I am
using a USB to parallel converter that came with the embosser, I am
assuming it is the one that HumanWare also sells. When I plug the USB
portion into the BrailleNote, I get the message "card not recognize," I
still get this message after performing a reset. I also tried unplugging
the parallel portion from the embosser so only the USB portion is
connected to the BrailleNote, I still get that same exact message, "card
not recognized." I thought that the purpose of the USB to parallel
converter is to have the ability to use devices that still use parallel
ports via the USB port. If anyone has also encountered this issue and
have successfully found some sort of work-around, it would be greatly
appreciated if you do share your word of wisdom.
Thank you, awating your response.
Kevin
