help with accessible printer
Mariea Harris <mharris1979@...>
Hi everyone:
I'm running a Windows 7 64 bit computer and using text cloner pro as my scanning program. I was using an HP 6500 printer combo, but it's not accessible when it comes to low ink and no paper. The messages pop up on the screen of the printer and not my computer. My boyfriend and I are both blind and don't have any sighted assistance around so we need a printer combo that will put the messages up on the screen. I've used Lexmark products twice before changing to the 64 bit computer and loved them. They're not sold in stores anymore and I have no idea if they put the messages up on the screens now or not. We just purchased a brother mcf j435w printer combo and it is worse than the HP. The installation wizard was totally inaccessible and I had to get a neighbor to install the software. Then we discovered it too puts the messages on the printer screen. It's also having issues with Text Cloner Pro. It will scan once and then seem to lock up Text Cloner Pro. Does anyone have any solutions of printer combos that are accessible and compatible with Windows 7? I know a lot of people still use XP, but I know there are a few out there who use Windows 7 as well. Any suggestions on accessible printers would be greatly appreciated. I do know Lexmark has a software that will work with their touch screen combos, but it's $500 and I'm not paying that. Thanks for reading this long message and I hope someone out there can help us. Mariea

These include downloading activeX controls or plugins to play a stream, etc. Jaws doesn't read the information bar for the specific site I'm trying to open. Has anyone else found alt+n ineffective? Sometimes when I open a site where Flash player is required, I get a crash and error report dialog. See this site: http://myflock2.com/cgi-bin/notes_list.pl?churchid=church3406 When I select a recorded service to play, I get a crash and "send error report" message. Anyone know what IE settings will take care of this? By the way, I recently experienced a crashed version of Windows on my old hard drive and had to change drives and ionstall a new version of Windows. Before the crash I could go to IE's favorites with control-shift-i, but that doesn't seem to work anymore with this new version of XP Pro on the new drive. I can still use alt-a, but can only use first-letter navigation to go to the favorite site I want. With control-shift-i I can start typing the name of a favorite site and it will spell out what I'm trying to find, but now that keystroke isn't working anymore. What IE settings can I change to enable that keystroke again? Is this a Jaws or IE issue? When my new drive was set up, I got Jaws 9.0 on my system, and I don't have the authorization number for activating one of the later versions. Thanks for your suggestions.

Re: Firefox and Crashes
douglas richard dexheimer
Over a year ago I mentioned that when I visit sites containg flash content, using IE, I get a crash and error report dialog. My question never got answered; Dave just sent a blank reply, and when I asked what he said, there was no further discussion.

Re: playing flash with jaws?
Gary King
Using the latest JAWS version, Internet Explorer 9 and the latest Flash player, I didn't have any problem finding a clearly labeled Play Button on this page. You might want to go into your JAWS settings to see if Flash detection is enabled. Also make sure you have the latest Flash Player. I use updateflash.org for that.

Re: Mouse over problem
Mike B. <mb69mach1@...>
Hi Daniel,
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
I'm not sure if this is the answer to your question since I don't use a mouse while using Jaws or any other time but, open the Settings Center & go into Web / HTML /PDFs, and, within that group of options, then you right-arrow into Miscellaneous when you get down to that. (Now this group 'Miscellaneous' is not the same as the other group of 'miscellaneous' settings further down the tree of applications!) The indicate element attribute checkbox is, by default, checked. Sometimes knowing that a link is OnMouseOver (and not a straightforward 'clickable' link) is important, as the extra info that that link contains is accessible only by 'hovering' the 'mouse over' it. (In JAWS the OnMouseover keystroke is Ctrl+JAWSKey+Enter. It doesn't operate if the indicate element attribute checkbox is unchecked. ) On the other hand, mouse-over might be turned off in the Speech & Sounds Schemes under the HTML tab. Take care.
