Hello George Bell,



First, thanks for your interest!


> First, can you tell me if you are blind please?

No, I' am.



> 1) Can you tell me how you have the ELEKUL connected to the PC.

Yes.



> Is it with Parallel Connection or Serial?

Serial.



>And are you quite sure you are using the correct cable?

I use the original cable from the vendor (1)

> 2) Have you been able to prove that the ELEKUL and the PC are talking to
each other?  The way I usually do this, is to go into a DOS Window, and at
the Command prompt, I send a simple text file to the port.

I use a DOS Braille translator program (PCB) from the same vendor and that
work with ELEKUL
Also, I receive from the vendor a dos program, PRINT55. This program  print
in DOS a text file. I try it, under Windows (DOS session) with success. For
information, with DBT, this program is asking to generate a temporize file
that is after sending to printing under the embosser. And on this way,
impossible to print.



Kind regards
