We run a number of the Enabling braille express and the Juliets. We run them under Duxbury and a Windows 7 network. Our braillists use these as well running Megadots and Braille 2000.

Subject: [nfbcs] Braille embosser recommendations

The NFB Texas affiliate is considering purchasing a new,
refurbished or gently used braille embosser. I have been asked to
assist in this process. I'm wondering if any of you might have
recommendations for a durable work horse embosser, preferably one
that doesn't have to be baby sat to keep the paper jams from
mucking up the process? The affiliate braille's quite a bit of
material with our youth programs, state convention, leadership
trainings etc. I'm sure we'd even braille more materials if we
had an embosser that we could keep going with relative ease. We
would like to spend under $5000.00 if at all possible.
We are considering the Juliet Pro 60. But I would like to know
what embossers you guys would recommend. Also if any of you know
of someone who would be selling a braille embosser that would fit
our affiliates' needs and price point please send me that
information as well.
The affiliate currently has an older VersaPoint Duo and an Index
4x4 Pro. Neither embosser is currently in full working order.
They are running Windows XP with the current version of Duxbury
on a network. They would like the embosser to be available on the
network as well. We are considering the option of upgrading our
operating system this year.

Thank you for your assistance!
