My wife has damaged hands from hand washing clothes for her entire family when she was little. As a result her hands have so far not been able to make any prints. I have a feeling it will be an issue when she has her interview. I know she'll likely be asked to fingerprint a 2nd time, but what happens after that if no prints can be taken? Will it further delay or will she even be denied a visa?

maybe her toes and feet could be printed?

They probably have ways of dealing with that - while not 'normal' fingerprints she will have some. In fact the FBI keep a special database of 'abnormal' / damaged fingerprints - much quicker to find a match.
