Good day, Willem here.
Does any one know how well the latest version of braille blaster work

What is the basics of braille printing under Linux?
Can braille printing be done using cups?

Simply by setting it as a printer, using the generic braille driver (or
the Index braille driver when it is an Index embosser), and setting
parameters. You can then just lp text files.
Also see /usr/share/doc/cups-filters/README*, there is a "braille
embossing section" in there.
