From Daniel Hawkins: Hello Cool Blind Tech, I enjoy listing to your podcasts and all the news you put on your site. My name is Daniel, and I am a AT trainer for a small CIL in southwestern Illinois. One struggle I have right now is printing Envelopes with addresses on it. As of now, I can go through MS Word to Mailing to Envelopes and put in delivery and return address. However when I print, there is a Manual feed dialogue box come up. My IT Director and I tried working on this. Botton line is that I can alt + c to continue in this inaccessible box. However, half of the time it does not work the way you want too. So, it have suggested to me get a label maker unit and print labels to stick on the envelopes. Do you guys know any accessible but reasonably priced label printer for home us for our consumers? How would you guys do Label printing? Thanks guys! From Dalton Lane: If I were to make a podcast for your team what kind of equipment would I need to use. Also, could I use voice memos for my recording source? From Graham Langford,: Hi, I, like many other people, probably listen to your Podcasts on a Victor reader stream or on an iPad When you mention an app or a device would you be kind enough to spell out the name of either the Apple device as it is not always that obvious how it is spelled I'm so we can find it easily I trust this makes sense. From Beatriz Loeza,: Dear CBT, I am curious to know how the iOS 11 is treating you if you were brave and jumped into the beta program? I really want to check out the beta but I don't have a working computer so I can't back up and restore if I don't like it. From Lisa Godsey My husband, Michael Godsey, was recently blinded and has really enjoyed listening to your podcasts. Before his accident he was very "techie”, so your sight is perfect! He heard about the T-Fal ActiFry on your podcast, but is wondering how a blind person accesses the recipes to use it? Thanks for your help.
