[Trainer-talk] Please some help embosser

[Chip Johnson]

It's also possible that the Top of Form Ofset isn't set correctly. This is option 30 in the menus. The recommended setting is 3 (that is 0.3 inches.) Here, 	from the Juliet manual is how to set it:
OL Takes the embosser off-line 
 0.1E Enter menu number 1. If you are using a different menu, 
 substitute the alternate menu number for the 1 in the 
 sequence 
 30.3E This will set a top-of-form offset value of 3 or 0.3 inches. 
 This setting will remain until you change it, even after power 
is turned off 
 1.1E This will install the change and reset the embosser 
If you have paper loaded in the embosser, check to be sure the tractors are 
securely holding the paper and that the paper can flow smoothly into the 
embosser with no obstructions. Turn on the embosser and listen for the "Romeo 
& Juliet" tune that signifies the embosser is ready to run. 
To set top-of-form, enter the following on the embosser's keypad: 
 OL Takes the embosser off-line 
 2E Set top-of-form 
An automatic sensor inside the embosser seeks the edge of the paper, so the 
paper should begin to move back and forth until the sensor fixes the location of 
the paper's edge in the embosser's memory. After setting top-of-form, the 
embosser returns on-line automatically, signified by the two-note on-line tune. 
IMPORTANT! The embosser's sensor must find the paper's edge to set 
top-of-form, which makes pages break in the right places. When 
you reset top-of-form in the middle of a printing session, remove 
any finished pages before issuing the 2E command. Every time 
you install a new batch of paper or clear a paper jam, remember 
to reset top-of-form with the OL, 2E sequence.

If there is nothing wrong with the embosser, you should be able to press ol to take it off line. Press 2 e for top of form. I am sure there is a manual on the Internet on www.brailler.com with directions for setting page length. I am wondering if yuur page length has gotten set to something other than 11 inches. The web site also has a phone number for Enabling Technologies. They give good technical support and don't seem to expect people to send machines in for absolutely everything. I hope this helps.

The problem we are having is that in spite of resetting the form several different times and ways, I am not having any luck getting the embosser to begin Brailling at the top of the page where it is supposed to.  It goes down about 1/3 of the way down the page before it begins to Braille.  This results in a further problem of having Braille embossed on the page break.
