[Nfbf-l] problem with braille embosser

[Kathy Roskos]

I believe you are absolutely right.  Now that I feel inside the printer, 
there is a wire that seems to have become disconnected.  Thanks for the 
insight.  At least I now know it is a mechanical problem instead of a 
programming problem.  Since it looks like this wire is not broken, just has 
become unhooked, do you think a regular computer repair person could fix the 
problem, or do I need to box up this monster and send it off to some 
specialized place? I appreciate the advice of people who can help those of 
us who are technologically and mechanically challenged.
