Ange and I stripped down printer 0 in hopes of discovering what's making it
get so many paper jams.  Nothing definitively wrong was found.  However, we
noticed that there were instructions in the manual for oiling the paper-
pickup clutch.  On taking the clutch apart, we found the remnants of its
original oil in pretty solid form.  This seemed a reasonable guess for the
source of the trouble, so we cleaned it, oiled it thoroughly, and reassembled
the beast.  First tests got no jams, a promising sign.  We'll see.
