Rob,

Check to make sure the ribbon is not binding on the guides and that it is fully in the guides but not behind the two chrome fingers that rest on the platen.  Also that it comes off the spools easily.  

There may be a spring undone in the ribbon feed mechanism.  Remove the ribbon and check.  Check to see if the mechanism works without the ribbon installed.  Any character typed will advance the mechanism.  Delete is good.

If none of the above fixes the problem, I will get back to you with an adjustment tweak.

73,

Wayne
