Hi I recently received a GW690 (original). My first roll I only got about 5 images, the first one starting where the third one should be roughly. There's also about 2 inches of space between frames. Also it advances normally til about 4th frame, then the first stroke is good, the second stroke is short.

I ran a second roll with the same results, this time I made sure it was set to "8" at the top.

I've run a test roll through and sometimes it seems fine, other times it seems like it's advancing too much per frame. Any thoughts? Should I return it?

It seems like if i advance it very slowly, it stops at the correct place. Is that normal? Does everyone have to advance slowly?
