3 Operating the printer
3.1 How to start up
3.1.1 Loading paper
1. Release the pick-up rollers, by moving the control on the button on the side of the sheet feeder
upwards and fill it with paper.
2. Adjust the paper margins guides in the sheet feeder to the correct paper width and lock them,
with the lever on the top of each margin guide.
3. Set the Sheet/card selectors, located on the front of the paper margin guides in the correct
position. When using a more stiff paper like Braille paper, the sheet feeder should be in the
lower, card position, and when using softer paper like copy paper, the sheet feeder should be in
the upper, sheet position.
4. Do not overfill the paper magazine. Leave a space between the paper bin and the pick-up
rollers of about 1-2 mm before closing it.

January 2000 Verson8.20/9.20
3.1.2 Document guide position
On the lower edge of the front panel cover there are two plastic document
guides. The correct position for these is to be lined up with the margin
guides and follow the side edges of the sheet, in order to lift the paper to
the correct position in the document stack.
Note! If the document guides are too close to the center or used together
with a stiff type of paper, it can cause paper jam.
3.1.3 Paper support position
The paper supports is used to keep the paper straight position to avoid multiple feeds.
On the top of the sheet feeder, there is a slot for the paper supports. Place the paper supports and
press them down into the slot so they are properly fixed and positioned at the margins of the
paper.
3.1.4. Paper length setting
The standard paper length for Everest is A4 (297 mm). If a paper with a different length should
be used, change the default paper length value by pressing the Form Feed. The printer will feed
one sheet of paper, in order to measure it and store the new value in the memory. The new length
will be stored until the next time the Form Feed key is pressed. Everest accepts all paper lengths
between 100-350 mm (4-14 Inch).
3.1.5 Paper sensor calibration
If the type of paper is changed, e.g. from a thick to a thin paper or from a dark to a light coloured
paper, the paper sensor has to be re-calibrated. Please refer to chapter 7.1.5, item A, B and C to
perform the paper calibration process.
The command to start the paper sensor calibration is ITEM + Power on.
3.1.6 Computer connection
Connect Index Everest to the computer with the Serial or Centronics interface. In stand-by mode,
both ports are open to recieve information.
3.1.7 Serial communication cable
Everest is equipped with a 9 pin female (D-sub) on the serial interface, and a standard centronics
connector for the centronics interface.
Serial Pin configuration:
2=RXD in, 3=TXD out, 4=DTR out, 5=GND, 6=DSR in, 7=RTS out, 8=CTS in.
Transmitting parameters (factory setting) are:
Baud Rate=9600, Data Bits=8, Parity=N, Stop Bits=1, Handshake=DTR hardware handshake.
3.1.8 Communication parameters
The communication parameters on the serial-port and centronics port on your PC are normally
set with the following command in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
MODE COM1:9600,N,8,1,P
MODE LPT1:,,P

3.2 Front panel
The control panel and user logic on the Everest is designed to make the use and installation of
the printer as easy and efficient as possible. All the keys are marked both in Braille and ink print,
and organised in clearly marked modules. The user is guided by digitised speech.
Note! WinBraille will overtake all commands from the front panel. The commands on the front
panel are applicable only when the embosser is connected to a DOS operated computer or
together with a Braille editor working in Windows, controlling the embosser with a text based
driver, e.g. Duxbury.
3.2.1 Start embossing
Connect the printer to your computer, load the paper and turn it on. Everest is ready for use with
the default factory settings.
3.3 Default setup
To change the active default setup, press the DEFAULT SETUP KEY A, B or C. Each setup can
be individually set for different user preferences.
3.4 Setup
If you need to change the setup parameters use the front panel.
To start the setup sequence press SETUP. In setup mode you can change and save all parameters
in the group: BRAILLE CODE, SERIAL COMMUNICATION, PAGE LAYOUT and OPTION.
3.4.1 Number of printed pages
Press the key ITEM in stand by mode to get a spoken message of the total number of printed
pages.

4 The sheet feeder
4.1 General function
The sheet feeder is designed to use paper in the weight range of 70-200 gsm. (grams per square
metre) Perfect function (a fault frequency maximum 1/1000) requires a paper suitable for the
printer, and a correctly installed sheet feeder. The experience we have from thousands of
Everest’s on the market, indicates that 80% of all good quality paper works perfectly with the
Everest.
4.2 Paper quality
There are a number of different paper qualities on the market which are labelled “Braille Paper”.
Normally they are in the range of 70-180 gsm (20-100 Pound).
To determine if the paper quality is suitable for the Everest check the following details:
a) The paper is properly cut. There should be a smooth and even surface when you feel with your
finger along the cutting edge of the paper.
b) Never use separated fan fold paper. The edges of this paper are very bad and can result in
double-feeding, or not feeding at all.
c) The paper must be a clean, with no holes or perforations on the sheet. Holes and perforation
are normally made with a punch, and as a result sheets can “stick” together.
d) Check that the surface of the paper has a texture similar to normal copy paper. The roughness
of the surface affects the difference between gliding and standing friction and is necessary for
proper function. The paper should not have a shiny or glossy surface. (Similar to playing cards.)
e) Ensure that the paper is flat and undamaged. If the paper is bent, it is important that the
curving of the paper is towards the front of printer. (See picture below)
f) Do not use dark coloured paper. It can interfere with the optical paper sensor.

Index Braille
Manual Index Everest
Page 10
January 2000 Verson8.20/9.20
4.3 Loading the sheet feeder
a) Set the right margin guide to the correct position. To the right, if the margin is set by the
position of the paper, and to the left, if the margin is defined from the setup.
b) Open the sheet feeder with the button on the side of the sheet feeder.
Load the paper and move the left paper guide until is slightly touch the paper and lock both paper
guides properly.
Note that Everest prints the page up-side-down so that the right paper margin guide is against the
left side of the printed paper. (See picture below)
c) When loading the sheet feeder with paper, make sure it is not overfilled. For the best possible
function it is necessary to leave 1-2 mm free space between the pick-up rollers and the paper
stack before closing the sheet feeder.
d) Set the two paper supports close to the margins of the paper.
e) Adjust the two green DOCUMENT GUIDES at the lower part of the front panel so that they
touch about 5 mm of the paper when it leaves the printer. When using a stiff paper, or a paper
with a weight above 150 gram (90lbs) the document guides can be placed beside the paper.
f) Select card or sheet mode on the sheet feeder. CARD mode is normally for paper of 120-200
gsm, and SHEET mode for paper below this weight. Make sure that the CARD/SHEET selection
is set to the same position on both side of the paper.

Index Braille Page 11
Manual Index Everest January 2000 Verson8.20/9.20
4.3.1 Random double-feed
With good quality paper and correct installation of the sheet feeder, a random double feed rate on
maximum 1/1000 must be accepted. If the fault frequency is higher we recommend that you
check the paper and installation against the following priorities. This following is a summary
from our experiences of a large number of Everest printers on the market.
a. To ensure a good paper quality look at the following details:
* Properly cut paper - never use separated fan folded paper
* There should be no binding holes or perforations on the paper
* The paper should have a rough surface (similar to copy paper)
* Paper should be flat and without damage
* Check that the card/sheet selectors are in the correct position. Test by changing between
sheet and card, using the same paper. We recommend use of the sheet position if it picks
up the paper properly.
b) To ensure good installation of the sheet-feeder, look at the following details:
* The margin guides should slightly touch the paper and be properly locked
* Are the card/sheet selectors in the correct position?
* The paper supports must be correctly installed.
c) To ensure good paper out control, look at the following:
*Thedocument guides (green plastic) should be in the correct position, especially if light paper
is used. The correct position is about 5 mm from the side edge of the paper.
* If heavy Braille paper is used we recommend not using the document guides. Simply slide
them out from the paper area.
d) Avoid low humidity locations.
If the Everest is used in a room with low humidity, static electricity can cause the paper to
stick together. In this case we recommend an increase in the humidity and opening a new sealed
package of paper. Low humidity can also occur in a low temperature area or in an air
conditioned room.
E) Maintenance of the sheet feeder.
* We recommend a clean and rub up of the surface of the pick up rollers after 2,000-10,000
pages.
Clean the pick-up rollers with soft soap solution, or even more efficient is to carefully ruff up the
surface with a piece of fine sand paper. Hold the clutch against the pick up rollers when pressing
Form Feed key.
4.3.2 No paper feed.
The “no paper feed” situation can occur when the sheet position is used for heavy or very stiff
paper.
We recommend switching to CARD position and testing again. No feed can also be a result of a
combination of reasons such as; dusty pick-up rollers, damaged or holed paper and improper
paper installation of the sheet-feeder.

5. Front panel
The control panel is designed to be easy to understand and use. It is organised in 5 groups and
the user is guided by digitised speech.
Note! WinBraille will overtake all commands from the front panel. The commands on the front
panel are applicable only when the embosser is connected to a DOS operated computer or
together with a Braille editor working in Windows, controlling the embosser with a text based
driver, e.g. Duxbury.
The keys are organised in five groups;
1. STANDARD COMMANDS; On Line, Off Line, Form Feed, Help.
2. PRINT MODE; Normal, Reform, Split
Page, Double, Single.
3. COPY; Repeat, Multiple, 1, 10.
4. DEFAULT SETUP;
A = Default setup A.
B = Default setup B.
C = Default setup C.
5. SETUP; Setup, Group, Item, Value.
5.1 Standard commands
5.1.1 On/off line
Connect/disconnect line to computer. Pressing Off line during printing also pauses printout.
5.1.2 Form Feed
Form Feed measures the paper length by feeding one sheet through the printer.
5.1.3 Help
The HELP key, in the print mode, is used to get a printout of active printer settings in both
Braille and graphic. The printout includes the software version, Braille code, active setup
parameters for Braille code, page layout, serial communication and options. Press Off line and
FF to interrupt the Braille printout and start the graphic printout.

Manual Index Everest January 2000 Verson8.20/9.20
5.2 Print mode
Print mode includes keys for changing between the different print modes. You can choose
between single-sided and doublesided or normal, reformatted or split page.
5.2.1 Double sided
In doublesided mode the printed document will be sorted as a stack which can be put direct into a
binder. Graphic printout will always be printed in the single sided mode, on the odd pages
(1,3,5,7...), even if the printer is set for double sided printout. If a graphic picture is included in a
text file, Everest will automatically change the page formatting so that the graphic and following
page will be in single sided mode.
5.2.2 Single sided
Press the key marked SINGLE to set the printer to single-sided printout.
5.2.3 Normal
In normal mode the Everest will print the Braille as it is formatted in the text file. The text has to
be formatted with the correct characters per line according to the setup of the printer.
5.2.4 Reformatted
In reformatted print mode the Everest formats the text to erase space in the text file, like multiple
space, FF (Form Feed) and CR/LF (New line). This function is very useful when printing a text
file made for ink print in Braille or normal literary (grade 1) Braille.
Re-formatting function works in the following way:
Auto line-feed and word wrap is automatically set ON.
1 or more space is substituted with 1 space.
1 CR/LF is erased.
2 CR/LF substituted with 1 CR/LF
3 CR/LF substituted with 1 CR/LF followed by two spaces.
More than 3 CR/LF’s are substituted with 2 CR/LF’s.
1 FF is erased.
More than 1 FF substituted with 1 FF.

January 2000 Verson8.20/9.20
5.2.5 Split page
The SPLIT PAGE prints Braille with more characters
per line than the setting of the printer, by splitting up the
file on several pages width. In SPLIT PAGE mode the
printout will be single-sided with a maximum line length
of 328 characters. This facility is useful when printing a
screen dump of say 80 characters in width.
5.3 Copy
With the copy function you can produce large quantities of Braille without tying up your
computer during the printout. Printer buffer is 400K = 400 pages of Braille.
Copy function includes the following keys REPEAT, MULTIPLE, 1 and 10.
With REPEAT and MULTIPLE you can choose between the different copy functions and with
“1” and “10” you can select the number of copies, and/or what part of a document to print.
5.3.1 Multiple
MULTIPLE is used to select number of copies
Example: Make 54 copies.
MULTIPLE + 5 x 10 + 4 x 1 + MULTIPLE and send the file to Everest.
5.3.2 Repeat
REPEAT is used to copy the last printed document or a part of it.
Press REPEAT twice to print one copy of the latest document.
Press REPEAT once completed by the number 1+10 to select starting page, REPEAT 1 + 10 to
select ending page. Press REPEAT again, and Everest will print one copy of the selected part of
the document.
5.3.3 Load buffer
Repeat can be used to download a file to the printer buffer.
Press the repeat key after power on - Index echo “File to buffer”
Send the file to Everest.
When the file is transferred completely, Everest will start to print.

6.3.3.10 Page layout Guideline
To determine the layout of an Interpoint printout, there is a few things to consider.
Line length
Maximum number of characters should never exceed the paper width, otherwise parts of the text
will be printed outside the paper and therefore be lost.
Use the following setting of the characters per line in Interpoint/interline 2,5 mm mode.
8,5" / 215 mm width= max. 32 char/line
12" / 297 mm width= max. 42 char/line
In Japanese standard interline, 2,2 mm
dot distance, use the following setting
8.5" / 215 mm width= max. 36 char/line
12" / 297 mm width= max. 48 char/line
Margins
See the description on the picture beside.
On the front-page all margins are at the given
position. The left margin and the binding margin
are both to the left of the page. On the back-page
the left margin has “moved” to the opposite side,
viewed form the front, and the binding margin
remains on the same position.
When changing the size of the binding margin, the
text-blocks on both sides moves simultaneously in
the same direction, but when changing the left
margin, the text-blocks move in the opposite
directions.
In doublesided mode, only use the B-margin
setting.
6.3.4 Options
The following options are available:
Word wrap On/Off.
Auto Line-feed On/Off.
Form feed On Off.
Volume 1/2/3/4/5.
Impact level 1/2/3/4/5.
Delay time 1/2/3/4/5.
Print quality Normal/High
