If i hit the space bar it returns to a new line

The carrier slides on a silver shaft that is about 1/2" thick spray some WD40 on the shaft, if that doesn't do it you have to get some on the carrier motor bearings located under the case in the R. rear corner.

reset the left margin at 69, or return and then press tab to start a new line

The Right margin is there and auto return is on. Tab to right end and set R. margin there.

hit the dash that is ABOVE and to the left of the OK then hit the space bar on the bottom. Space bar is the widest key on the bottom and actually looks like a typical keyboard space bar.

Try adjusting your right hand margin to be set as far across as possible and take the typewriter off proportional spacing and set it at 10,12 or a set spacing,this should stop it from doing this if not let me know

If the paper will move up with the platen knob the paper feed motor probably has a broken plastic gear. The gear and motor are sold as one 35.00.

Does the carriage just move back and forth on its own? Space bar work? The escapement may be sticky from lack of use. You may be able to see it from the upper rear or the bottom. It will move when you hit space bar or keys. Try working WD40 into it, it'll take a bit of use to free.

Hi:

You have Auto Carriage Return enabled. Hold down the code key and press the R key once to disable that function.

Check to see if the printwheel is in correctly.

I tried your recommendation:
Go to-> Run and type cmd
that should be, (type "cmd") (do I actually put in "type cmd or only cmd?)
Then hit return (when I hit return, a black box came-up-C:\\documents and settings\connie hall-the curser was blinking at the end of this, instead of on the next line) Was it fully loaded?
Then you instructed me to type: scconfigspooler= RPCSS then hit return to reboot the computer. I did this but the computer still didn't load the hardware. I just wanted to make sure i typed the right command. please respond.
