Appendix: Commonly Asked Questions
Here are the questions we get most often about operating the
Braille Blazer.
We suggest you try out the solutions we recommend before
calling for help.
It might save you a long-distance call.
When I Braille a document with the Blazer, the Braille seems
very scrunched up and too close together.
You may have the Blazer set to Braille in graphics mode and/or
label mode. Both these modes produce Braille dots closer
together than is normal. Make sure the knob on the right side of
the platen bar is facing toward the back of the Blazer, and make
sure label mode is turned off from within the Printer
Configuration menu.
When I Braille a document, I get a blank page between every
page of Braille.
It's best to let your Braille translator format your document
rather than the Blazer. So make sure the following format
parameters on the Blazer are set properly from within the
Printer Configuration menu.
Left margin = 0
Right margin = 34
Top margin = 0
Lines per page = 0
Word wrap = Off
Note: Make sure your Braille translator is not set to Braille with
a line length of 40, as for the Juliet Braille embosser, for
example. The Blazer can only handle a maximum line length of
34.
40
