I have two NMS-1431 printers and both have some needles that stopped working. Is there anything I can do to get them going again? As I really want to use my printer

If they are just stuck, you could try cleaning up the head and applying WD-40 to lubricate the needles. If one or more coils or a flat cable is broken, then no chance.

Try reading this first: Service manual

That is for a Sakhr AX-990... I have a Philips NMS-1431 printer. I have looked up the service manual, however it doesn't say anything about needles that are not working properly.

Oeps, I think I pasted the wrong manual.... My apologies....
Will try to find the correct one again...

I didn't know you could add a NMS printer to a non MSX?
