Pages And Some Lines'-letters Have Shifting Happening
in printing, the whole page often gets shifted to the left so the left edge gets cut off, and sometimes pages with just half-paragraphs happen, .. And also in some "lines", the tops of letters are 'shifted' from the bottoms. (Problem started after I wiped the inside with a rag)
