[nabs-l] two questions that are completely unrelated to oneanother

[Sophie Trist]

Kaiti, thanks for the reply. What is inferred printing? I've 
never heard of it but it sounds super interesting. Could you 
explain that to me please?

Hi Sophie,

As far as I am aware the BrailleNote cannot connect to a wireless
printer, but it can go off of inferred which is really nice.  I 
used
it for a few years and although I still needed to be right by the
printer cutting out the cords saved me a lot of hassle.  Hope 
that
answers your question.

Absolutely.  I know a number of people who have tested out of 
Braille
courses at the centers.  My understanding from being on calls 
with Pam
Allen recently is that the centers try to meet the individual 
trainee
where they are in each of the class areas and build on those 
skills.
So, if you're braille is great they won't make you do a bunch of
unnecessary training and will instead spend that time on building 
up
other skills.

HTH!

 Sophie,
 I don't believe that you can test out of a class at a NFB 
training
 center however, I'm not sure about that. I would recommend that 
you talk
 to the director of which ever training center that you are 
planning on
 attending either Julie Deden at CCB or Pam Alan at LCB. I 
attended CCB
 so If I'm missing something would some one please correct me?
 Koby.

 dear List,

 As my subject implies, I have 2 questions that are not related,
 but I thought I'd put them in the same thread. I'm 99% sure I
 know the answer to this first question, but I thought I'd check
 anyway. Can the braillenote connect to a wireless printer? I
 don't think so, but it would make my life a lot more convenient
 if it could and I want to verify. My second question concerns 
NFB
 training centers. I'll be going to one in a couple of years, and
 I know that the standard classes are braille, home ec, O&M,
 technology, and shop. I've had braille education since I was 3
 and can fluently read grades 1 and 2 as well as nemeth. I was
 wondering if you can test out of a class at an NFB training
 center. Any answer will be appreciated.

 Best,
 Sophie Trist
