Linux will recognize the parallel port of the computer, usually as /dev/lp0.

You should then try to emboss the file. If that doesn't work, you might have
to change a setting on the embosser. I don't know, since I have never used
that particular device; my experience is with Enabling Technologies embossers,
and I know a little about the Index embossers as well.

If you need to change any embosser settings, you'll have to refer to its
manual.
