[GreenKeys] Model 26 intermitent key not typing ( S key skips at random )

[Zachary Zarzycki]

Ah yup, seems to be it, this has a wheel and strap that you tighten the nut on, it's supposed to be set to a certain amount of ounces but I just gave it a few clicks and tried again, no bunching up. ...... but my missing S has come back to rear its head, may. Tried using unshift on space on the tty board to same effect

like the earlier discussion of M28 (or M32?) ...
looks like your carriage return is not making it all the way to the left
before the next character is printed ... 

I have forgotten the mechanism in the M26 for carriage return,
but looking at it for a while should give you a clue as to what pulls
the platen back to the left, then see if it's binding or doesn't have
enough 'spring' ...
