The annoying rubber bands, which guide the paper around the platen have been discarded for a new form of paper guide, which may be adjusted to any desired point.
The platen roll should be instantly interchangeable, thereby allowing of a soft substance platen being used for a single copy work and a hard one for manifolding.
If the hard platen is of reduced diameter, more perfect alignment is secured on machines employing a complete circle of rigid type bars and a central top carriage.
The type bars strike down on the platen in a line perpendicular to its plane, thus transmitting the maximum power with the minimum resistance, and further, maintaining the alignment with several sheets as with one.
The type bar hangers in machines embodying the pivotal principle need to be rigid and solidly fixed, while the paper carriage should be perfectly rigid and present a level and even platen surface for the type to strike against.
A new variable line spacer is embodied, which makes it easier to write at any point on the paper, and prolongs the life of the platen for the reason that the type no longer strikes in unchanging grooves.

After the cylinder casting is set on the platen of the machine, the boring-bar with the cutter-head mounted on it is inserted in the spindle.
The amount of feed for the spindle, spindle-head, platen or saddle is varied by two levers K and K{1} which control the position of sliding gears through which the feeding movements are transmitted.
The work itself is attached either directly or indirectly to the table or platen P.
To illustrate, a casting which requires drilling, boring and milling at different places, can often be finished without disturbing its position on the platen after it is clamped in place.
The cross-feed for the platen can be automatically tripped at any point by setting an adjustable stop in the proper position and the feed can also be tripped by a hand lever at the side of the platen.
The platen P has a cross-feed, and the saddle E on which it is mounted can be traversed lengthwise on the bed; both of these movements can also be effected by hand or power.
The spindle-head, platen and saddle can also be adjusted from the end of the machine, when this is more convenient.
The hand adjustment of the platen is effected by shaft Z.
Lever U engages the cross-feed for platen P and lever V, the longitudinal feed for saddle E.

Platen died as governor-general of Norway, seeing his great life-work nearing completion.
But Count Balzar von Platen was the man to make the great work a realized fact, devoting his whole life to it, conquering distrust, opposition and lack of funds.
The lower side of the platen was covered with a soft "packing" or "blanket" of cloth.
After each impression the platen was screwed upward so that the sheet of paper which had been printed could be removed and hung up to dry.
Further efforts were, therefore, directed to increasing the output of the bed and platen presses by the application of improved inking devices, sheet-feeding, and impression mechanisms.
The bed was then "run in" under the platenby means of a crank at the side of the press, and the platen was screwed down to make the impression.
The inking mechanism was similar to that employed on the bed and platen press, but the mechanism for forcing the ink through the slit in the bottom of the fountain was improved.
The screw was then turned down until the platen pressed the paper against the inked type, and produced a printed sheet.
In others, the platen was hinged to the bed, but in all of them the mechanism was complicated.
The die or stamp is held in the head of the press by clamps, and the cover is placed on the platen or bed of the press, which is raised up to the stamp by a "toggle joint" operated with a "cam.
It differed from the Stanhope in that the screw was dispensed with, the platen being depressed by a combination of levers and lifted by the aid of a weighted balance-lever.
The arrangement was somewhat similar to that known as the platen machine; the printing being produced by two flat plates, as in the common hand-press.
The platen worked vertically between standards, and was brought down for the impression, and raised after it, by a common screw, worked by a bar handle.
