I'm replying to the whole list so someone can assist Cecil with his Model 26.

He sent this video of what it's doing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YxVe6euiTY.

I conjecture that the dark characters could be caused by clogged type slugs on the typewheel and that the line feed issue could maybe be solved by adjusting the selector.

Best,

Joe

Cecil,

Does the line feed occur after one character (or set of characters) in particular?

Does the line feed occur at the same position in the line each time?

Best,

Joe

I think I got it working. I have 2 issues with it. First one is that it does a random line feed in the middle of a sentence. Second is that certain letters are way darker than others.
Thanks
