How often should the Juliet Pro be cleaned? I have had the one I have now for almost a year, and I have perhaps embossed half of one box of 11x11.5 paper. It sees very light usage here.

Hi Jerry,

I was afraid of that. Thanks.

Diane:

I have a Juliet Pro 60 myself. I have had it for about three years and have not had any problems with it. But as soon as funds become available, I am going to have it in the shop for cleaning. I cannot elaborate on the other embossers, but as far as finding another embosser that is less expensive, good luck. As we all know, when you put “adaptive” before any item, the price goes up exponentially.

Hi Everyone,

Once again some of the dots on my Juliet Pro 60 are no longer printing. If I decide to return it to Enabling Technologies for repair, this will be the third time in around 6 years. It has been less than a year since I received it back from the shop last time. I'm seriously considering not bothering to return it. Does anyone have any experience with the Juliet 120 wireless interpoint embosser? Also, can anyone recommend an interpoint embosser that might be less expensive and more reliable? All help appreciated. Thanks.

Diane

If you are saying that you use the Juliet embosser occasionally, you are probably fine and don't need servicing.

What you may want to check out is if the embosser has had a firmware update, you are running the latest version of Duxbury, and your operating system is in Windows 10. Then, you may want to at least update the firmware on the embosser.

As the thread on embossers I want to add here, if your embosser requires a parallel or serial port connection to the computer, it is an iffy that an adapter will work with most of the new computers. Today, if you walk into a computer store, the computers you buy off the shelf do not have a serial or parallel port.

For those with older embossers you might want to check with the manufactures of that embosser about adapters, firmware and whether your unit needs servicing.
