[GreenKeys] M-15... Auto Line Feed After every printed character

Luckily, the model 15 I got from Nick worked "out of the box" except for a
few broken pullbar springs.

As I recall, the line feed is "decoded" by a function bar on the back of
the vanes. There are then several linkages and adjustments. I SUSPECT one
of these adjustments are out such that the mechanism "thinks" that every
character is a line feed even though the line feed function bar does not
move into the vanes.

The adjustment description starts at

Good luck!
