Re: longevity of braille printers?
Josh Kennedy
the irie-at and viewPlus embossers such as the braille buddy are a little louder than a perkins brailler, not much, just a little louder. The braille buddy at least has plastic pieces that just snap together. The single sheet or cut sheet feeder tray snaps into place using two pegs on the sides of the printer. There is another small plastic tray that snaps into place below that... and the whole top cover in front of the 4 button control panel also comes off and you can get to the carriage mechanism and solenoids and solenoid housings to make it easier to clean the printer and clear any paper jams. I have not used it with tractor feed paper as I do not have the room. So far I just used it with single sheets of 8.5x11 inch thermoform plastics and braille paper. It will also feed through smaller items like 3x5 index cards. I did ask irie-at to consider making a less expensive embosser. If they make tiger software suite an optional purchase, this would bring the price from $1495 united states dollars down to $1295. And if they reduce the speed by 25 percent, from 25 characters per second down to 18 to 20 characters per second and get rid of the tractor feed option, making it a cut-sheet-only printer, they may be able to get the price down to $1195 or maybe a bit less.
One more thing. If you guys want to build your own high quality embosser and start selling it, you can do so! Just go to www.braillerap.com ... and follow directions there. Supposedly that braillerap embosser is a cut-sheet printer that will also emboss soft aluminums. It does text and graphics. Josh

No, it's not hard to learn. Yes, there are tutorials made by
Joseph Lee himself. I highly recommend this
course, available for $52 U.S., all of which goes to support
the very worthwhile NVDA project and will teach you everything you
need to know about using NVDA, and then some.

I think his use of the word abacus was to indicate that he perceives it to be an outdated dinosaur. What I'd recommend is to back up the system drive and try a clean install of 20H2. If that doesn't work, just restore the old one and think of something else to try.

Your comparison may be correct when comparing the JAWS cursor to the screen review function in NVDA. I haven't used JAWS for years. But there is another way to review content, object navigation. I'm not sure where you can find the best material to learn it. To understand it, I think a lot of people need some sort of good tutorial. It may make up for all or most of the deficiency that may exist in screen review.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Also, depending on how people use their computers, you may or may not benefit from knowing object navigation. And there is a third way of reviewing the screen, or to be accurate, reviewing an object whichisn't the same thing but you may find it similar to reviewing the screen in some or many instances. Using the desktop keyboard layout, which is the default, moving with the numpad is as follows: with the numlock off, 7, 8, ande 9, do the following, ;previous line, current line, next line. 4, 5, 6, previous word, current word, next word. 1, 2, 3, previous carachter, current carachter, next carachter. As I said, I don't have Windows 10, but this method may allow some of the review that may no longer be available in screen review. But as I said, a lot of what anyone does with a computer involves Windows and program commands. Gene Gene

I love my braille printer, and I think the reason I like it so much, is that I only use it when I need to have items with me for a meeting.

Hi. Did you just, or at any stage uninstall Jfw? Also, it is wise to download the c++ redistributables as they are needed by some of your systen's components and programs to propperly work. As for JFW, it seems to me that remnants of the not propperly uninstalled JFW program are not propperly cleaned up, thus those errors. A system repair would help in this case, i think as the MSVCP140.dll is a must have component needed in windows and not having a clean working version of that particular file will cause serious problems for your system. Cheers!

Jim, can you provide us
with more information about your **** computer? I am not
familiar with the Abacus brand. Is your computer a laptop or
desktop? How much RAM and what kind of processor does it have?
When and where did you buy it, and which version of Windows 10
was originally installed on it when you bought it? Have you been
able to install any cumulative or feature updates on it since
then? And is Windows Security being updated with the latest
database definitions? Maybe someone on this list can guide you
in the right direction if you give us more information.
