I think you need drivers.  I don't see you getting very far without them and
I can't imagine they'd come with any packages like foomatic.

Subject: [orca-list] using a braille embosser under ubuntu 13.4 64 bit

Hi guys,
I'm trying to use an Enabling Technologies Juliet printer.
I don't expect that there will be any drivers, I just want to figure out a
way to send a file to the parallel port. The embosser should know what to do
from there.

I've done the following from a command prompt:

lpr -Plp0 "filename.brf"

I get an error:
"The printer or class does not exist."

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks!
Rusty
