    if it's the paper skewing I would check the two mylars on the exit side of the bridge unit, if the image is skewed I would check the white idler rollers below the reg roller on the conveying unit.

      Where is the actual skewing happening? Emergency stop the machine a few times to determine where.

      If it's in the bridge, it's pretty common for the upper white idler rollers can fall out or dump their pressure springs so the tension is uneven front-to-back. The only thing that keeps the shaft and roller installed in the upper guide is a snug keyhole slot in the upper guide which might not be very snug any more.

      This was my MacGuyver to get a few more weeks out of this machine:

      If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
      1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
      2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
      3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
      4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
      5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

          Grease. I am a big fan of IBM23 but that's getting pretty hard to find. I read on a typewriter forum that Mobilegrease28 is an excellent substitute for the clay based IBM23. Technically it's considered an aircraft quality lubricant. The only major difference that I can see is that IBM23 is tan colored and Mobilegrease28 is bright red colored. =^..^=
