Ottawa Canada Dear Chaman:
Things to check with your printing problem are that the HP LaserJet Printer is configured to receive data from its serial port. What model of LaserJet are you using? If its an older LaserJet it may need to have DIP switches set to tell it to receive data on its serial port instead of a Parallel port. Not sure why the Juliet embosser is also giving you grief other than it too may not be configured to receive data on its serial port. Not sure if Enabling technologies, the makers of the Juliet and many other fine Braille embossers have the owner's manual for the Juliet on their web site or not, but guess you could have a look there. Serial communications can be pesky things to troubleshoot, I've had to do it a heck of a lot of times over the years. HP may have the documentation for their printers on their web site, not sure, as I don't hang out there. Does your school have a staff member who answers to the name Computer Geek or Computer Guru? If it does, and you are trying to print at school, see if you can enlist their help. They won't know anything about the BrailleNote but hopefully they can confirm the printer and embosser are set to receive data on their serial ports. You need to set the data rate (Baud rate), Parity, Stop Bits and flow control on the embosser or printer the same as the BrailleNote is using or very strange things will happen, like the embosser or printer will produce random gibberish or nothing at all or text may start disappearing especially from longer documents. Good luck, wish I knew where my Juliet manual on disk was. Brian -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
