Test typing and adjustments
- Ring and Cylinder adjustment (distance of platen from typeface; the type shouldn't touch the platen or you'll find you're imprinting on your paper, making holes in the paper and/or ribbon, which isn't good) [Interestingly Dul doesn't mention this particular adjustment]
- evenness of the letters (on feet)
- alignment between capital and lower case (motion)
- margin consistency
- line scale height
- adjust escapement "so that it's moving the proper distance both up and down to prevent skipping or missing spaces"
- adjust the height of the ribbon, this is done to make sure the entire letter is printed (and presumably so the bichrome is properly usable when available)
