[NFBMO] Index Braille Embosser V3 Looking For A Good Home

[Dennis Miller]

Hi Fred:

 

Thanks for the phone call.  To answer your question for everyone.  Both HumanWare and NanoPac worked with me to try to make the V3 compatible with the latest edition of Duxbury and with Windows 10 and 11 and it simply wasn’t possible.  HumanWare freely admits that the Index V3 is not compatible with later versions of DBT and Windows.  It is also not compatible with Braille Blaster.

Dennis, just a question or two. If you are using, for example, the Duxberry braille translation software why does your embosser need to be compatible with the windows software you are using?

Hello:

 

I have an Index V3 Braille Embosser looking for a good home.  It comes with all the cables, drivers, and manuals.  The only problem is that it does not support the Windows 10 or 11 operating systems and Index no longer provides support for it.  The embosser appears to be very gently used and I can attest to the fact that it does emboss so there is nothing wrong with the mechanics of the embosser.  It’s just not compatible with the newer versions of Windows.  If someone is still using an older version of Windows then it should be perfect for them.  The embosser was donated to me by a friend when he upgraded to an Index V5 but it’s not compatible with my operating system and I would like to donate it to someone who could hopefully use it.  I refuse to throw away a braille embosser.  This is simply not in good taste.  All I ask is that you pay for shipping.  

 

If you are interested please contact me off list at: millerdennis893 at gmail.com.  You can also call or text me at: (660) 234-5351.

Thank you!

Dennis Miller
