[Athen] Braille Printer Research

[foreigntype at gmail.com]

Another 2¢ to the consideration. Are you purchasing new or
replacing/updating an existing Braille embosser? If existing one is being
replaced, you might already know this. If not, it’s worth noting this
tidbit: Braille embossers are LOUD and create an impressive amount of dust.
Find a room that can be sound proofed and if needed a dust collection
system.

Of course, embossing paper could have been remarkably improved since my
last production experience and dust may no longer be a concern.
