This new device is an add-on for the Olympus D1000 digital recorder. It is used for transferring the recorded dictation from the D1000 to your PC. It is a great tool for people who wants to be able to dictate "on the road" and NOT have the recorder "tied up" to the PC when transcribing.

The Miniature Card Reader/Writer provides a printer pass-through feature. The customized parallel port connector allows you to plug your printer cable into the parallel port cable of the Miniature Card Reader/Writer. This allows you to share your computer's printer port.

The Way It Works

Once you have installed the Reader/Writer drivers, the DDSs software and plugged the Desktop Interface to your parallel port, you will then open the DSS Player by clicking the Start button and choose "Olympus DSS Player" icon from Windows' Program menu.
To start downloading the recorded dictation, remove the miniature card from the Olympus D1000, place it in the Miniature Card Reader/Writer and click the Download button. All the audio files recorded on the Olympus D1000 are copied to your hard disk within a minute.
Start Dragon NaturallySpeaking, click the "Tools" menu and click "Transcribe".
That's it!
