BRAILLO 400 CS2 Braille Embosser
The world’s first and only production braille embosser using cut-sheet paper
The Braillo 400 CS2 is the world’s first production braille embosser designed for cut-sheet braille paper. It delivers true production performance on individual sheets, supporting both two-page (front/back) and four-page formats for books, magazines, and newspapers.
By eliminating the need for continuous or roll-fed paper, the 400 CS2 simplifies braille production while maintaining the consistent, high-quality output and robust engineering expected from Braillo embossers. With its introduction, Braillo now supports all braille paper formats used in production—continuous, roll-fed, and cut-sheet—and is the only manufacturer to do so.
The Benefits of Owning a Braillo:
True Production Braille
In order to meet the heavy demands of true Braille production, the embosser needs to be made of durable, high quality parts and components. Braillo is the only manufacturer of Braille embossers that can deliver on this promise. See The Braillo Difference.
Free Duxbury Software
The world’s most trusted and reliable Braille Translation Software, Duxbury, is included free with the purchase of a Braillo Braille printer. See Details
Highest Quality Braille Paper
For over 30 years, Braillo has produced their own custom Braille paper that adheres to the highest standards available. The end result is a strong, durable, low-dust, chemical-free paper that will not only produce a superior Braille dot, but will ensure the Braille dot holds its shape over many uses. Additionally, because of its quality, it will also help extend the life of your Braillo embosser. See our Braille Paper
Leading Warranty In the Industry
For all Braillo models, our Standard Warranty covers every component from the date of delivery throughout the first three years, or up to 8,000 hours – whichever comes first. To put this into perspective, this equates to 7.2 – 15.6 million printed Braille pages (Braillo 300 – Braillo 650, respectively). Braillo stands behind our embossers.

BRAILLO 400 CS2 BRAILLE EMBOSSER PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Braillo 400 CS2 represents a significant advancement in braille production technology. While high-speed embossers have traditionally relied on continuous or roll-fed braille paper, Braillo has engineered a solution that enables precise, reliable sheet feeding at production speeds. This innovation allows users to produce braille on individual sheets without compromising performance, supporting both two-page-per-sheet (front/back) and four-page-per-sheet formats for books, magazines, and newspapers, as well as producing covers for braille documents—opening new possibilities for flexible document creation and streamlined workflows.
Using cut-sheet paper simplifies paper sourcing and handling, allowing users to take advantage of locally available materials and a range of paper weights. It also eliminates the need for a cutter or burster, while enabling sheets to be pre-punched for easy binding. This flexibility reduces dependency on specialized paper formats and makes it easier to integrate braille production into existing environments.
Built on Braillo’s proven production platform, the 400 CS2 delivers the same durability, reliability, and consistent braille quality trusted by leading production facilities worldwide. Designed for continuous operation, it maintains high-speed performance while ensuring optimal dot quality across every page.
With the introduction of the 400 CS2, Braillo sets a new standard in production braille embossing—combining innovation, flexibility, and performance in a single solution.

4 Year Standard Warranty
Leading Warranty In the Industry
Braillo’s 4 year embosser warranty is the most comprehensive in the industry…
Braillo covers the first 3 years
For all Braillo models, the standard warranty covers any defective mechanical and electrical component from the date of delivery throughout the first three years, or up to 8,000 hours – whichever comes first. This amounts to up to 15.6 million braille pages. By the time most embossers have become obsolete or stopped working, Braillo embossers are still under warranty!
Braillo adds an additional 1 year for using Braillo/ATC braille paper
Braillo will offer an additional 1 year to the standard warranty by using Braillo/ATC braille paper. The use of poor quality braille paper often causes excessive wear and tear on an embosser, which causes parts to fail prematurely. Using Braillo/ATC’s specially formulated braille paper will help ensure these risks are minimized.
This brings the total warranty to 4 years, or up to 10,700 hours and 20.8 million embossed braille pages.
