[nabs-l] Comparing Braille Embossers

[Haben Girma]

Hello,

I'm interested in finding a quiet and fast embosser with which to emboss 
textbooks for college. I hear that the Tiger embossers are among the 
quietest, but I can't find out exactly how quiet they are. Does anyone 
know how the noise level of the Tiger embossers compares to the Juliet 
Pro 60? I'm also interested in the Index Basic D since it is very 
portable, but I'm not sure whether it can handle large print jobs. Also, 
a review by IBTC in 2001 states that Index embossers are temperamental 
and prone to jamming and breaking. Is that still the case in 2009?

thanks,
Haben
