Introduction
The Braille Blazer is a portable Braille printer that lets you
produce Braille documents, graphics, and labels. With Braille
translation software on your computer, you can produce well-
formatted Braille documents in Grade 2, Grade 1, or computer
Braille. And with Braille graphics software, you can produce
tactile diagrams and maps, as well as graphs of mathematical
equations.
You can customize many of the Blazer's features through its
various configuration menus. These menus are all audible
through the Blazer's built-in speech synthesizer. In addition, the
speech synthesizer can be used with screen access programs,
even while the Blazer is Brailling a document.
The Braille Blazer is very portable as it closes up into a
compact, 12-pound case with a sturdy handle. Although you
probably will not carry it around on the subway every day, it is
small enough that you can run it across the street to your
colleague's desk or carry it with you on your next airplane trip.
