braille embosser

I am thinking about getting a braille embosser that is wireless so I can print from my phone. I know Index has printers that will do this, are their any other printers that I could look at? Only want it for personal use, so wanted something small and inexpensive. Peggy and Dixie Marie Sent

Re: Installing braille embosser

Hi! I don’t have one yet. I have just heard that they should work with the mac. Now i have a blista brailletech which was great using windows but their support refuses to create drivers for the mac for some reason. I guess its because the printer itself installs a virtual com port under windows.

Re: Installing braille embosser

If you do in Terminal: ls /dev/cu* What is returned, apart from your Bluetooth ports? Hopefully the port is just serial-USB so you can simply send embossable text to it in standard ASCII form. Test it out with a braille file, as short as you can of course so as not to waste the paper. --
