[NFBCS] Braille printers

[John Gardner]

Tracy, full disclosure, I am ViewPlus founder and president so may be just a tiny bit biased. The quietest embossers on the market without using an enclosure are the Tiger embossers from ViewPlus. If your friend also wants graphics, one of these would be the choice anyhow. The reason they are quiet is that the paper is held against a metal platen and does not vibrate nearly as much as it does during conventional embossing. It is the paper vibration that makes most of the embosser noise - basically acting like a speaker.

If you or she/he have questions, probably best to write me off list. John.gardner at viewplus.com

A friend of mine is looking for a braille printer.  He is more interested in quietness, reliability and ease of use  than price.  And of course it has to be easy to connect to either Windows or Linux.

Any recommendations?

Tracy
