Duxbury and the Juliet Classic work perfectly under Windows 7 with
the cable I bought from Enabling. They have also told me that this will
only work on the Mac using Bootcamp. I have no desire to do this install
twice once I find a Windows 7 disc.

. . . what if it were true?

The issue in that case is windows seven compatibility, not virtualization. To
find out if your old enabling embosser is windows seven compatible, email the
serial number to enableing support and ask.

Includimg old Enabling Technologies embossers? This IS the sticking point. I
do not think some of us wish to try two separate installations just to see
which works and which does not. Its fine if you know what you are doing and cna
fool around with it.

100% agree!
I use VMWare Fusion myself running windows 7 and I am working with unusual
USB devices quite a lot. I have never come accross a single device which
failed to connect to the VM.
As silly as it may sound: Does the dialog come up which let's you chose
where to connect the device to, MAC or VM?
It has a checkbox letting you remember your choice, did you by chance make
the wrong selection persistent?

No, that isn’t right. You may have an incompatible cable, but it
shouldn’t matter whther you run fusion or bootcamp. In fact, you can run
bootcamp particians as virtual machines.
I’ve found virtualization to be a very convenient excuse for people who
don’t know systems besides windows.

Well, according to tech support from Enabling Technologies, the only way
it will work is if I uninstall Windows and Fusion, and reinstall it using
boot camp. The tech support says the embosser will only work in boot camp.
This is really disappointing, and a major flaw of using fusion.

Hi, these USB to parallel adapters are actually printer port adapters.
This means that they connect a centronics printer to your USB host. They do
not - and they can not - simulate all aspoects of a parallel interface. a
classical parallel interface allows for port level IO which is simply not
possible via USB.
A printer port - sometimes referred to as centronics port - only uses a
subset of these features.
Therefore, your embosser might simply rely on features not supported with
the USB printer port class.

Left a message yesterday for support at Enabling Technologies. Haven’t
heard back from them yet. May have to try calling support at Duxbury
Systems though.

Some of these adapters work and some don't, while embossers made before a
certain date won't work on 7 no matter what cable you have. Don't be shy
to call support.

Subject: running Embosser with Duxbury on my Mac
I am running a Mac Book Air with Windows 7 Professional and trying to get
an Enabling Technologies embosser to work properly with Duxbury. I can’t
seem to get the computer and embosser to communicate with each other
properly. I am trying to use a USB to parallel port cable since the Mac
does not have a parallel port. I am assuming I am going to have to call
tech support at Enabling to get some help with this. Any ideas would be
greatly appreciated. I have an Enabling Thomas embosser.
