Also on the embosser's keypad, set top-of-form:
OL Takes the embosser off-line
2E Set top-of-form and return on-line
Enter 5.1E on the keypad while staying on-line. 5.1E activates the Single
Sheet Mode. Begin embossing by sending your file from your computer. When
the printer encounters a form-feed control character or reaches the set
number of lines per page, the printer will feed the current sheet out of the
rollers. Make sure the first sheet is clear of the rear of the printer, then
place the next sheet in the tractor rollers.
Stay on-line. Enter 2E on the keypad to set the top-of-form. (2E works
on-line in Single Sheet Mode.) The second page will now emboss. Repeat this
sequence until the entire file has been embossed.
Leave Single Sheet Mode by entering 5.0E on the embosser's keypad. 5.0E
ends the Single Sheet Mode and turns the paper-out sensor back on. Reset
the menu to your usual perf skip and lines per page settings.
IMPORTANT! Single Sheet Mode automatically disables the paper-out
sensor, so the printer could continue to emboss even
when no material is between the die bars. Since
embossing without paper can eventually damage the
embosser, close supervision is important in the Single
Sheet Mode.
PROBLEMS?
Quality Braille desktop publishing requires harmony between your word
processor, translator, computer and embosser. Enabling Technologies has
been helping people learn to use Braille embossers and translators for nearly
thirty-five years, so we've observed many times that formatting and
transmission problems can arise even when the embosser is working
perfectly. Also, many of the common-sense preparations that ensure good
results with any computer system apply in Braille production as well.
Productivity improves dramatically when people using the system get enough
practice to become comfortable with their computers, keep important
manuals handy in case of questions, and plan sufficient time for a little
trial-and-error with complex projects. If possible, more than one person in
the office or agency should know how to perform important computer tasks.
