[GreenKeys] M28 printer FIGS-LTRS weirdness

[Duncan Brown]

Slow-motion can be a big help.  Apparently some i-phones can do slow 
motion video.  I was having a garble problem on one of my TTYs.  A 
friend recorded the motion of the levers controlled by the selector 
mechanism armature. Then I could see that the problem was right there at 
the SM, and not farther down the line.

Good luck,
