I have the Index Basic Braille Printer. Where do I get the drivers for the
Mac? Up until now I have been using it on Windows.

Why don't you use Louis combined with the Index Braille printer app for
the Mac? I do that successfully here.

Hello All,
I’m trying to get an old Index Basic working with my Mac Mini. I have an
USB 2 Paralle. I have installed a USB 2 Serial driver to try the serial
route. In the system report; That it sees an IEEE-1284 device and has this
listing.
IEEE-1284 Controller:
Product ID: 0x2305
Vendor ID: 0x067b (Prolific Technology, Inc.)
Version: 2.00
Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec
Manufacturer: Prolific Technology Inc.
Location ID: 0x14400000 / 2
Current Available (mA): 500
Current Required (mA): 100
In linux I would now echo something to the /dev listing but I don’t know
if it is listed in /dev. The add printer tool doesn’t allow you to specify
USB or Parallel connection. What on earth does it mean by offering fax, ip
and window?
Does anyone use an old parallel or serial on a new Mac? If so, how did you
configure it?
