How do I set the time on my calculator

To set the time on this calculator, you must press and hold the time key until the display is flashing 0. (Hint: you will want the date displaying when you are going to set the time as when you press the time key to hold it, it will switch over to the time.) Once the display is flashing you type in the time using the keypad. If you were going to set the time for 9:30, you plug in 930 and push the time key again. If you need to set it for a time in the PM you would have to use the 24 hour scale; for example 1:30 PM would be 1330. To set the date, you press and hold the time key with the date displaying until the display begins flashing. Again you would use the numbers on the keypad to enter the date and press the time key again to set it. For 1/20/2011 you would type in 12011.

Victor Adding Machine. I am looking for someone to recondition my old Victor adding machine serial number 4834-478 please.

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to Victor Calculators. They have an interesting history. https://www.madeinchicagomuseum.com/single-post/victor-adding-machine/ I don't see anyone listing repairs or restoration. Surprisingly they don't fetch a lot of money, just $60 to $400 depending on model and condition. You might like to restore it yourself? https://www.google.com/search?q=victor+adding+machine+restoration Videos ..

Victor 1260-2 will power on, give a very short hum/buzz then go quiet and not work.

It sounds like there may be an issue with the motor that drives the paper feed mechanism. The hum/buzz that you hear when you turn it on could be the motor trying to start but failing to do so. The tightness of the paper feed could also be related to the motor issue. The green "E" on the screen likely indicates an error. Without more specific information about the error code, it's difficult to determine the exact issue. However, it's possible that the error code is related to the motor or paper feed issue. If you're comfortable doing so, you may want to try opening up the machine to see if there are any obvious issues with the motor or paper feed mechanism, such as a loose or broken part. If you're not comfortable doing this or if you're unable to identify the problem, it may be best to take it to a professional for repair.

My Victor 1560-6 adding machine is still printing light even after changing the ribbon

Here are some potential issues that could be causing the problem:
  1. Worn or damaged print hammer: The print hammer is the part of the machine that strikes the ribbon to transfer ink onto the paper. Over time, the print hammer can become worn or damaged, which can cause it to strike the ribbon with less force, resulting in light printing. If you suspect this is the problem, you will need to replace the print hammer.
  2. Dirty or misaligned print hammer: Even if the print hammer is not worn or damaged, it can become dirty or misaligned over time, which can affect its ability to transfer ink onto the paper. Clean the print hammer with a soft cloth and make sure it is properly aligned with the ribbon.
  3. Worn or damaged ribbon guide: The ribbon guide is the part of the machine that helps guide the ribbon over the print mechanism. If it is worn or damaged, it can cause the ribbon to slip, resulting in light printing. You may need to replace the ribbon guide.
  4. Misaligned or dirty print mechanism: The entire print mechanism may need to be cleaned or realigned to ensure that it is making proper contact with the ribbon and paper. Consult the user manual or seek professional assistance to properly realign or clean the print mechanism.
  5. Electronic malfunction: If the issue is not related to any physical components, there may be an electronic malfunction that is causing the problem. Seek professional assistance to diagnose and repair any potential electronic issues.
