Hi Stuart.
I am assuming you mean the software that comes with your printer and how
accessible it is with jaws? In the past when i've had access to epson
products, accessibility hasn't been bad, but hasn't really been great
either. they may have improved since the last time i used one. For
OCR, i think epson provide a program called textbridge which works with
jaws, but i'm not sure if they've continued to do this. As for the
printer its self, you may be limited as to what functions you can
control. The thing with modern printers is that most of them have
screens and everything is accessed by pressing buttons on the scanner
and scroling through menus. If only it was like photocopiers made by
canon or i think zerox also made one, these had a speech interface for
the blind. On HP printers, they have a control center and from there,
you can make coppies, scan documents and pictures, or print photos
that's if you have a HP printer. Epson have something similar called
smart pannel which i believe allows access to commonly used functions,
but again i'd hesitate to say how accessibility varies from model to
model as manufacturers often change their software without telling anyone.
My recommendation? one way of finding out if its accessible is simply
download it and install it before you buy the product. obviously it'll
go on at you about the product not being plugged in, but if you can,
skip past those warnings and see if you can run the epson smart pannel.
i think drivers and software are available separately from the epson
website by searching on google or the site for your model. You
shouldn't have any major problems, and if you can't get to something,
try the jaws curser.
I hope this helps, let me know if you have any further questions.
Many thanks,
Mo.
