Installing Drivers in Microsoft Windows
Installing the Generic Text Only printer driver is required for many Windows
applications. Select START, CONTROL PANEL, PRINTERS AND FAXES from the
Windows desktop. Select Add Printer from the open window. Scroll through
the list of available printers and select Generic Text Only. Follow the
prompts displayed for your specific version of Windows. Please note that
each version of the Microsoft Windows operating system has a slightly
different format for installing printers. Select Local Printer attached to this
specific computer. When prompted select the port your embosser is
connected to on this computer. Typically lpt1 for parallel connections and
com1 or com2 for serial connections. If you plan to use the embosser with
MS-DOS applications tell Windows to make this the Default Printer. When the
wizard closes select NO to the Print Test Page question.
If you are using newer translation or transcription software such as DBT
from Duxbury Systems to emboss your work, install the translation software
package on your computer. Then open the program and select Global,
Embosser Setup and select your embosser. Then select the port your
embosser is connected to on your computer. For parallel connections this is
usually lpt1; for serial connections com1 or com2. DBT will automatically
send your finished Braille work directly to the embosser. If you are using any
other port with Duxbury DBT, select Windows Device from the menu and
using the scroll down bar select the Generic Text Only printer.
If you have older transcription or translation software that creates files
without sending them to the embosser, you have to copy the final,
formatted Braille files to the embosser yourself. Before you can do this in
the Windows operating system, you must first install the Generic Text Only
printer driver in the printers folder of Windows. Simply select the Add
Printer icon found in the Printers folder, select Generic Text Only and
follow the default prompts to install the driver for the parallel port that has
the embosser attached. Right click or select the properties for the Generic
Text Only printer driver and set it as the Default Printer.
From the DOS prompt you may now send your Braille files to the embosser.
The command to send files to the first parallel port is:
Copy mydoc.brf lpt1: [Return]
If you're connected to the second parallel port, the command is:
Copy mydoc.brf lpt2: [Return]
