The letter you have is probablly the PixelMaster???  Its a Laser
Printer, from Embabling Technologies, and will cost you around
$5000 to $8,500 depending on options.  The PixelMaster is really
neat.  It will allow you to create raised drawings, because the
image is printed, not the characters.  You can have braille and
print on the same page, or braille and a map.  What can be done
with a normal laser printer for the most part, can be done with the
PixelMaster.  Its a color laser printer, so the price is not so
high in that case.  I have sample that are really outstanding.  I
want one to make maps with, but don't have cash.  If I thought I
could sell maps of areas to people as a side business, I'd consider
starting a side business.  Anybody think its a possibility?
