About your Typewriter

Your Brother typewriter is actually two machines in one. It’s a powerful typewriter with all the features you expect from a Brother machine, There’s also a display typing mode that allows you to see each line of text and comect it before printing. Your typewriter is also a wordprocessor that allows you to create and edit entire documents before printing them. You can switch between wordprocessing and ordinary typing at the push of a button, so if you are in the middle of wordprocessing a document and need to type a short memo or address an envelope, it's no problem. Just switch to typewriter mode, do your typing, and switch straight back to your wordprocessor document at the point where you

left off

There’s also a form typing mode that makes it easy to fill in pre-printed forms, and the file

management feature allows you to organize your wordprocessor documents.

About This User Guide

This guide is divided into five main sections. These describe, getting started, typewriter operation, wordprocessor operation, form typing and file management. These sections are identified by the words GETTING STARTED, TW, WP, FORM TYPING or FILE

MANAGEMENT at the edge of each page.

Because your machine can work as a typewriter or as a wordprocessor, some features

described in the typewriter section are applicable to the wordprocessor, and vice versa. These sections have TW/WP at the edge of the each page.

Setting Up Your Typewriter

Setting up the Typewriter

This section tells you how to set up your typewriter for typing. If you didn't remove the yellow packing pieces and fit the paper supporter when you unpacked the typewriter, now is the time to do it before you attempt to power up the machine.

Paper Supporter

The paper supporter is used to check and adjust the position of the paper,

Attach the paper supporter by inserting the tabs into the holes provided on the top of the typewriter.

The sliding paper guide can be used to adjust the position of the left edge of the paper, relative to the extreme left position of the print carrier, which is indicated by the ‘O' mark on the embossed scale.

Support arm

The support arm can be folded out to provide additional support to long sheets of paper.

Setting Up Your Typewriter

Note;

Should you need to move your typewriter, we suggest that you remove the paper

supporter first to avoid the risk of damage.

Acoustic Cover

The acoustic cover suppresses the noise created by the typing carrier and prevents dust from entering the typewriter. Electronic typewriters really dislike dust, so make sure that the acoustic cover of your typewriter is always closed.

Margin scale

The margin scale is embossed on the acoustic cover. It shows the three pitch scales (for

10, 12 and 15 characters per inch), the left and right margins, the tab stop positions and

the position of the carrier.

Glare Screen

The glare screen can be adjusted to shade the acoustic cover in orderto reduce reflections.

Setting Up Your Typewriter

Top Cover

Opening the top cover

In order to insert a new cassette daisywheel, cassette ribbon or spool of correction tape, first place the top cover ofthe typewriter to the upright position. Do this by placing both hands on either end of the cover and lifting it upwards until it stands by itself.

1. The keyboard locks up when the cover is raised, and typing is not possible until it is closed again,

2. Opening the top cover has no effect on margin settings, tab settings or the correction memory, all of which are retained without change.

3. While the cover is open, the message;

^CuUEK UHbh

will appear in the display.

Closing the top cover

After inserting the cassette daisy wheel, cassette ribbon or spool of correction tape, close the top cover by replacing itto its original position. Ensure that it is firmly in place afterclosing.

Note:

If the top cover is closed with the unit switched ON, the carrier will automatically travel to the left edge, then return to its previous position.

Setting Up Your Typewriter

Cassette Daisy Wheel

Brother's slip-in, slip-out cassette daisywheels are known the world overfortheir beautiful

true letter quality type print Here’s your chance to discover it for yourself

Your typewriter comes with a cassette daisy wheel already installed. You may, at some point, wish to exchange it for one with a different typeface, onto place a new one in. With

the Brother typewriter, this is a very simple task.

Removing the cassette daisy wheel

To remove the cassette daisy wheel, pull the locking lever towards you to release it, then grasp the ‘ear of the cassette daisywheel between your thumb and forefingerand simply pull it out

Note;

The cassette ribbon need not be removed in order to remove the cassette daisy wheel.

Setting Up Your Typewriter

Inserting the new cassette daisy wheel

Grasping the 'ear' of the new cassette daisy wheel, slip it into the cassette guide slot and slide it in as far as it will go.

Now press the locking lever back toward the platen until it clicks into place. Do not force

the lever. If you have any difficulty, recheck the cassette daisy wheel to ensure that it is

properly set and try again.

Notes:

1. Be sure that the ‘ear’ ofthe cassette daisywheel is to the right during insertion. Putting it in backwards can damage both the cassette daisy wheel and the motor mechanism.

2. If the cassette daisy wheel is not properly locked into position, characters will not be properly typed.

3. There is a wide selection of Brother cassette daisy wheels available.

Cassette Ribbon

The wide range of Brother cassette ribbons available have two unique features in common: they are clean and troublefree. Clean means that the ink goes where it is supposed to go,

Removing the old cassette ribbon

First, use the [SPACEBAR] or [BKSP] key to move the carrierto the center ofthe platen. To remove the cassette ribbon, hold the cassette with both hands and raise the front end (that near to the platen). Then, when the ribbon is clear, simply lift the cassette up and out

2. Brother cassette ribbons are available in four different types:

Correctable film ribbon (standard w^ith this model)

One-time film ribbon

Multistrike film ribbon

Nylon ribbon

The correctable film ribbon is also available in red, blue, green and brown.

Correction Tape

The correction tape guarantees afaultless document every time. What's more, the bottom

of yourtypewriter will never be full of pieces of old correction paper and lumps of dried up correction fluid!

Removing the old correction tape

If you need to replace the correction tape, first make sure that the carrier is in the center of the platen by using the [SPACEBAR] or [BKSP] key. Then remove the cassette ribbon.

Now just pull out the left and right spools of the old correction tape from the carrier.

Setting Up Your Typewriter

Inserting the new cassette ribbon

Remove the stopper from the nev/ cassette ribbon and turn the ribbon feed knob counterclockwise to tighten the ribbon.

Now locate the lugs on the back edge of the cassette into the locating holes in the cassette ribbon table, and slide the ribbon between the ribbon guides.

With the ribbon set between the ribbon guides, press the cassette down until it locks into place. Turn the ribbon feed knob again slightly anticlockwise to tighten the ribbon.

Notes:

I. A window is provided in the cassette to allow you to check on the remaining amount

of ribbon.

Installing the new correction tape

First install the left spool, then thread the tape across the left and right guide rollers and install the right spool. Make sure that the active (non-shiny) side of the correction tape is

facing towards the platen.

Take up the slack by tumingthe right spool counterclockwise until the white portion of the

tape begins to wind onto the right spool.

Note:

Brother' correcLion tapes are available in two types:

Liftoff correction tape (standard with this typewriter)

This is used together with the correctable film ribbon.

Coverup correction tape

This is used together with the multi-strike film ribbon, one-time film ribbon or the nylon

ribbon,

Switching The Machine On And Off

Before switching on for the first time, check that there is no floppy disk in the disk drive on the right-hand side of the machine, as this can complicate matters, if there is a disk in

the drive, press the rectangular button to eject it.

Use of the disk drive will be discussed later.

The power switch is located on the left hand side of the machine near the back. To switch on, press the side of the switch marked 1 - ON so that the red bar on the switch is visible. To switch off, press the side of the switch marked O - OFF.

When you first switch on yourtypewriter, the machine will initialize itself The carrier will move to the extreme left position, then to the left margin, and the daisywheel will rotate,

then stop. During this time the display will show the message;

This gives you the four operating options of your typewriter

You can select these options in one of two ways;

1. Usethe leftand right cursor keys — and to move the rectangularcursorsymbol

■!r'-iSbc.lih.r'‘íT

(1) to the option you wish to choose. Then press the [RETURN] key to confirm the

selection.

2. Use the shortcut of pressing the number key corresponding to the option you wish

to select. There is no need to press the [RETURN] key after pressing the number key, the machine will go straight into the option you selected.

The 4— and —^ keys can be used in almost all operations of the machine, for selecting

options and moving left and right across the display.

Setting Up Your Typewriter

You will probably wantto use cursor selection until you become familiar with the machine,

to reduce the possibility of mistakes, but for conciseness we shall always refer to selection

by number.

Selecting TW lets your machine operate as a normal typewriter, but w'lth the useful option oftyping each line oftext on the liquid crystal display screen, for correction before printing.

WP is the wordprocessor mode. When you select the word processor mode, the text you

type will be displayed on the liquid crystal screen, and you can correct mistakes, insert and delete words, and perform many other editingfunctions, to make sure that yourdocument

is perfect before you actually print it on paper.

You can also save your documents as files on the floppy disk and recall them at any later time.

F TYPE selects the Form Typing mode, which you will find a great time-saver if you

frequently have to ПН in pre-pririted forms. Once you have set up the typewriter for a

particular form, you will be able to type in the blank spaces on the form and, when you have finished typing in one space, the printing carrier will automatically move to the beginning of the next space.

FILE MANAGEMENT is the mode you will select when you want to carry out operations

on the document files you have stored on a floppy disk, such as copying, renaming, deleting and so on.

It's easy to switch between the various operating modes of your typewriter. If you are in

WP, F TYPE or FILE MANAGEMENT mode, and need to do some quick typing such as

a short memo or envelope, you can simply press the [TYPE] key to jump into TW mode, After doing your typing, press the [TYPE] key again to jump back to what you were doing at the point where you left off.

If you are in TW, WP, F TYPE or FILE MANAGEMENT mode, and want to quit it completely and select another mode, simply press the [FILE] key. This will allow you to save your work, then return you to the MAIN MENU, from which you can select a different option.

Loading Paper

After switching on the machine, you are ready to insert a sheet of paper and set up your typewriter ready for typing.

Setting Up Your Typewriter

Automatic Paper Insertion

Inserting a sheet of paper into a typewriter has never been simpler just three easy steps and you’re off! Most types of smootl i finish paper can be used with your typewriter. Rag content and other types of rough paper, however, are not recommended.

First, ensure that the power switch is ON, and that the PAPER RELEASE LEVER is set to

the back position.

Place the paper guide in the desired position, then, holdingthe sheet as straight as possible.

Now press [P INS]. The carrier will first move to the left end of the platen and then back

to the center of the margin scale, the paper bail will lift, and the platen will rotate to feed

in the sheet of oaoer automatically.

Setting Up Your Typewriter

Afterthe paper has been inserted, press[RETURN]to move the carrier to the left margin position. When you are in normal typing mode, you will be prompted to do this.

PRESS RTN-

S’^U Yr'L MUL'-L,

Notes!

The distance the paper is fed in will determine the position of the first typing line in

relation to the top edge of the paper (the top margin). You can adjust this using the

START SET function, as described later. The factory setting of the top margin is one

inch.

If the paper is crooked or not properly aligned after automatic insertion, it may be adjusted manually. First turn the platen or use [INDEX] to feed more paper through,

then pull the paper release leverfoiw/ard. This will liftthe paper bail and release the paper

so that it may be moved manually. Align the paper until it is straight, then return the paper release lever to its back position and turn the platen knob or use [INDEX] and

[R INDEX] to return the paper to the position where you wish to begin typing. For

finer adjustment, use these keys with the [CODE] key held down.

Manual Paper Adjustment

If the paper is crooked or not properly aligned after automatic insertion, it may be adjusted

manually. First pull the paper bail lever forward to raise the paper bail and avoid it catching

on the paper. Turn the platen knob or use [INDEX] to feed more paper through, then

pull the paper release lever forward. This will liftthe paper bail and release the paper so that

it may be moved manually. Align the paper until It is straight, then return the paper release

lever to its back position and turn the platen knob or use [INDEX] and [R INDEX] to

return the paper to the position where you wish to begin typing. For finer adjustment, use these keys with the [CODE] key held down.

Setting Up Your Typewriter

Paper Thickness Control

The paper thickness control is located on the right side of the cassette ribbon table.

The lever is normally pushed right down in its standard position. Pulling up the lever

increases the space between the carrier print head and the platen, thus enabling you to

Self-Demonstration

Your typewriter has a built-in self demonstration that tells you about the many advanced features of your machine.

Setting Up Your Typewriter

To activate the self-demonstration:

1, Make sure that your machine is sv/itched on, with a daisy wheel and cassette ribbon

fitted, and that the MAIN MENU is in the display.

2. Press the MENU key. The following message will appear on the display:

If you wish to cancel the self-demonstration before it has finished, hold down the [CODE]

key and press the [CANCEL] key.

Multilingual Keyboards

If you wish to type in some foreign languages, for example Turkish, you may find that the English daisywheel does not contain all the required characters, andfor languages with nonLatin characters such as Greek the character set is completely different

Of course, you can simply put a foreign language daisy wheel in your typewriter, but you

may find the results are not very good.

Firstly, the keyboard layout may not be the same as it would be on the proper foreign language keyboard.

Secondly, when you type a character using an English daisy wheel, the printing impact is set to suit that particular character, so that the print density remains even, (For example, a small

character such as a full stop needs less impact than a capital B).

Setting Up Your Typewriter

If you use a foreign language daisy wheel, the typewriter does not know the correct typing impacts forthe characters on that daisy wheel, and some characters may appear darkerthan others.

Fortunately, the multilingual keyboard feature of yourtypewriter allows you to get the best results when you use foreign language daisywheels.

To select a different keyboard language;

I. With the main menu on the screen, press the [MENU] key.

The following menu will appear.

What is a Disk Drive?

While your typewriter is switched on, the machine can store up to 32,400 characters of text in its internal memory, but there are two disadvantages to this. Firstly, the stored text would be lost if the machine was switched off, and secondly, once the memory became full you would not be able to store any more text.

To allow you to save unlimited amounts oftext, yourtypewriter is equipped with a floppy disk drive. This is located in the right-hand side of your typewriter.

The floppy disk drive allows you to transfer your document from the machine’s memory and record it on a rotating disk made of a magnetic material similar to audio and video cassette tapes.

Once you have saved a document on a disk, it will remember the document even if the power is switched off. Furthermore, if a floppy digli becomes full and can hold no more information, you can remove it from the diskdrive and replace it with a blank one. You can also use a disk from yourtypewriter (and the documents on it) in some other Brother wordprocessors or an IBM compatible personal computer,

The Disk Drive

What is a File?

A floppy disk records documents as a sequence of coded data in the form of magnetic signals on the disk's surface. The collection of data that makes up a particular document is known as a FILE. Since there may be many different documents saved on a floppy disk, each one must be given a FILE NAME so that you can see what files are on the disk, and retrieve the one you want without having to read every one on the disk

A file name consists of up to 8 characters, followed by a 3 character code called the file name extension. The extension is used by your machine to identify what kind of file this

is. For example, TEXTFILE.WPT is a Brother wordprocessor file.

When you are giving your files names, you do not need to worry about the extension, it

is added automatically by yourtypewhter. The only characters that are allowed in file names

are letters Ato Z, numbers Oto 9 and the hyphen (-). Yourtypewriterdoes not distinguish

between upper and lower case letters in file names, and letter input will be converted to upper case.

If you try to input an invalid character, or type more than 8 characters in the file name, a

warning beep will sound.

When you have to cany out operations that involve loading files into memory, a list of files

will appear on the screen. These screens are known as index screens.

File names should be chosen so that you can easily find the document you want on the disk You may wish to use names that are mnemonics, or arranged in alphabetical or numerical order.

Types Of Disk Your Machine Can Use

This machine accepts only the following types of 3.5 inch floppy disks:

MF 2DD (Double Sided/Double Density/Double Track)

Your machine cannot use high density (“HD") floppy disks, so be sure to purchase only double density double track (“DD") disks. It is recommended that you use Brother brand disks.

Inserting and Removing a Floppy Disk

Insert the floppy disk as shown in the illustration. You will feel some resistance if you try

to insert the disk the other way around.

To remove the disk, simply press the eject button .

The Disk Drive

CAUTION! The floppy disk may be inserted and removed when the power is either on

or off It may also be left in the drive while transporting the machine. However, you should never insert or remove it while a message indicates that a disk operation is in progress, for example:

The Disk Drive

■<:iPLEh’bL Uifi I !

Initializing New Disks

A new floppy disk can be used by a system only after being “formatted" - that is, initialised by the system for specific, use by that system.

Whenever you carry out an operation for which your typewriter needs to use the disk drive, such as saving document the typewriter first checks that there is a disk in the drive. If there is not, the following message will appear in the display:

^INSERT DISK fiND PRESS RTN.

You should insert a disk and press the [RETURN] key,

If there is a disk in the drive, the disk format is checked. If the disk is unformatted or has

a different format, the following prompt appears:

^INITIALIZE? VyN

Press m to initialize the disk, or [N] to abandon the procedure. Initialization of the disk

will take a few minutes,

•WARNING! - Initializing a disk erases any data that might be on it. If you initialize a disk

from a personal computer, for example, the files will be completely destroyed. Once the disk has been initialized, however, it will be in the proper format for use with your

typewriter,

•The disk which comes with this machine is not initialized.

The Disk Drive

Note!

Your typewriter can read disks that have been initialized on IBM-compatible personal computers and other wordprocessors that use the same disk format. However, it can use only certain types of files created on those machines.

If you ask your typewriter to use an incompatible type of file, it will give the following warning:

1 NUhL id hi Lb ! VPE

Hold down the [CODE] key and press the [CANCEL] key to abandon this operation.

::!TCC"

Caring for Your Disks

Although 3.5-inch floppy disks are rugged and the system has incorporated in it every

reasonable precaution to prevent inadvertent erasure, accidents will happen. New disks

frequently come with cards or labels listing some of the things that can go wrong; for

example:

Mechanical damage due to heat, dust, dropping, crushing, spilled liquids, etc.

Electrical damage due to exposure to magnetic fields. These are generated, not just by magnets, but also by electrical and electronic equipment such as loudspeakers, television sets and computer monitors, and many other types of equipment,

DON’T

- leaye your disks lying around where they may become dirty or damaged,

- leave your disks lying on or near electrical or electronic equipment,

- open the shutter of the disk and never touch the surface directly.

- use magnetic materials near the disk.

- expose the disk to extremely high or low temperatures.

Store your disks in the original manufacturer's carton or in a dustproof disk storage case.

The Disk Drive

Write-Protecting Your Disks

All 3.5-inch floppy disks hdve a switch that protects their contents from accidental erasure. When the switch is in its READ ONLY position, you can read information from a disk, but you cannot erase old information or store new information on the disk Put the switch in

the READ ONLY position to protect a disk containing valuable information.

Note!

Ifyourtypewritertriesto store information on a write-protected disk for example, saving a document, the following message will appear

40RITE PROTECTED DiSK-

nOUE PROTECT TRB. PRESS RTN TO RETRY-

Backing up a Disk

The best insurance against losing important data is to make backups (duplicate copies) of

your files. You can do this with the COPY function, as explained in the section on FILE

MANAGEMENT.

Disk Error Messages

During disk operations, you may see the following warning messages;

-iiL-' I bK i" ULL. = INSERT NEU DISK fiND PRESS RTN-

This means the disk can hold no more data. Replace it with a disk that has some space remaining.

This section teiis you how to use your machine in the typewriter or

TW mode, in this section you wiii iearn how to do basic typing and

use the many usefui features of the machine. Don't be afraid to experiment Whatever keys you press, you cannot

damage the machine, and the worst that can happen is that you may waste some paper.

Your typewriter's keyboard has a full set of character keys for typing alphabetic and

numeric characters, symbols and punctuation marks. It also has a number of keys for calling up the many functions of the typewriter, the use of which will be discussed. A diagram of

the keyboard, with a brief description of each function key, appears on pages 6 and 7.

ALT and CODE Keys

Many keys ofthe typewriter have text or symbols for secondary functions printed on them in green.

These functions are selected by first holding down the [CODE] key, then pressing the key for the function.

Some of these functions can also be selected using the [ALT] key. The use ofthe [CODE] and [ALT] keys in relation to specific functions will be discussed later. Note that keys shown as being used with the [ALT] key can also be used with the [CODE] key, but keys shown as being used with the [CODE] key will not work with the [ALT] key.

Basic Typing

Important Notes!

1. Forconcisenfiss, once the function ofalcey has been explained, we shall use the symbol

for the function, for example [BKSP] for BACKSPACE. When referring to the secondary function ofthe key, we shall use the symbol for the secondary function, for example [BS I ] for MICRO BACKSPACE. When referringto functions used with the

[CODE] or [ALT] keys, we shall say “press [CODE] + [BS I]’’ to mean “hold down

the [CODE] key, then press the [BS I] key", for example.

2. When the flashing cursor symbol is over a character, the display alternates between

the cursor and the character, e.g. ® ^ E —^ As it is not possible to show this alternation in the diagrams, the cursor symbol will, in general, be shown instead ofthe character, except where it is more important to see the text.

Typewriter Operation

When using your typewriter in TW mode, you can use it like an ordinary typewriter, with each character being printed as it is typed. Alternatively, you can type a line of text on the display, and only print it after you have checked and corrected it. In this section we will

look at these different modes of operation, but first, you need to select typewriter mode.

Selecting TW Operation

<<MhIN r1ENU>>

TliJ 2s yp 3=F TYPE 4s FILE MPNfiGEMENT

The machine should be switched on, with the MAIN MENU in the display.

To select typewriter operation, press [I]. If the machine has not been used before, the following message should appear.

TVC'Cr r-fOPiP -.. \

i I i L_ ! ■■■

The number in the top right-hand comer of the display tells you how many characters remain between the current carriage position and the right margin. It will decrement by one for every space that the carriage moves to the right, and is useful for setting tabs as well as telling you how many characters remain on the current line.

The left and right margins are factory set to 10 and 75, so this number will be 65 if the

machine has not been used before. If the machine has been used before and the margins have been changed, this number may be different,

If the machine has been used before, you may see the display "RUT” on the top line of

the display. Alternatively, or “..TST" may appear in this position, in which case the

bottom line of the display will be blank. These display messages have to do with the four operating modes of the typewriter, which will be discussed later.

Moving Around The Page

Your typewriter has keys that let you move the carriage accurately to any part of the page and back to your original typing position, without having to make any time-consuming manual adjustments of the platen.

Carrier Return

The [RETURN] key advances the paper by one line, depending on the line space setting, and returns the print carriage to the left margin.

Basic Typing

Tab Key

The tab key moves the carriage to the right by one tab position each time it is pressed,

the distance depending on what tabs have been set

Index and Reverse Index

The index and reverse index keys are used for vertical adjustment of the paper, and for shifting the paper up and down by 1/12 inch fortyping subscripts and superscripts.

The [INDEX] key moves the paper up by 1/12 inch (moves down the page) each time it is pressed.

The [R INDEX] key moves the paper down by 1/12 inch (moves up the page) each time it is pressed.

If [INDEX] or [R INDEX] are held down for more than 0.5 seconds, the paper will move

continuously until the key is released.

Basic Typing

Note!

When typing on the display in TW or WP (non-printing) mode, [INDEX] and [R INDEX] are used for scrolling the display up and down.

Backspacing

You may wish to move the carriage back over text you have already typed fora variety

of reasons; for example, to manually underline text, or when making corrections.

Your typewriter has three different backspace functions.

Simple backspace

Press the [BKSP] key to move the carnage to the left one space at a time. Holding down

[BKSP] for more than 0,5 seconds moves the carriage continuously to the left.

Note!

It may appearthat [BKSP] duplicates the function of ^—, but when typing on the display in TW or WP mode, ft— merely moves the cursor to the left, whereas [BKSP] moves the cursor to the left and deletes the text that has been typed.

Basic Typing

Express backspace

Holding down [CODE] ?^nd pressing the EXPRESS BACKSPACE key - [EXPR] will bring

the carriage immediately back to the left margin, When typing on the display, [CODE] +

[EXPR] moves the cursor symbol to the beginning of the line.

Micro backspace

Holding down [CODE] and pressing the MICRO BACKSPACE key - [BS I] will move

the carriage to the left by I /120 of an inch. As the distance backspaced remains constant

at I /120 of an inch regardless ofthetyping pitch being used, backspacing in this case varies by pitch as shown in the following table:

Pitch Spacing

10 I /12 of a character pitch

12 I /10 of a character pitch

15 I /8 of a character pitch

PS I /10 of a character pitch (nominal)

Thisfunction is useful in numerous different ways, including positioning a character or word when the paper has been reinserted into the typewriter, or fortyping a character or word

into a limited space on the document. See “Insertions And Deletions" in the next section

for more information.

Relocation

If you break off typing and move the carriage back along the typing line, using the cursor and backspace keys, to make a correction, for example, yourtypewriter remembers where the carriage was when you left off typing.

When you finish making corrections, the [RELOC] key returns the carriage back to your original typing position.

Note!

Relocation is possible only while making corrections on the current typing line, or the pr^ious line.

Status Indicators

Before you start typing, you will probably want to set up your typewriter with the correct margins, tabs, line spacing and typing pitch, so that the layout of your document is correct

when you print it. You may also wish to switch on (or ofif) text attributes such as bold,

underline and expanded printing.

Before you can change any of the items above, you need to know what the current settings are, The most frequently used status indicators are shown permanently on the top line of the display, for example:

FIND SHFT CNT BLD EXP PUT Sf

<<iVPE M0DE>>

The others status indicators can be displayed by pressing the [ALT] key, when the following display will appear

P X N1-' bHi" r UNT b'LD LXP UU1 bP KB i

PI i UM = 1U L = bP “ 1 ■> U HZ s !"■ FUT = 'I

Don’t worry if the display is not exactly like the examples shown above, since the actual indications will depend on how the machine is set up. Some of the indications may be

different from those shown in the above example, and some of the indications on the top

line of the display may be blank, indicating that a function is turned off.

Each of the above indicators shows the current status of a text attribute such as bold and underline, and layout or format attributes, for example typing pitch and line spacing. At

this stage you probably won't know what many of these indicators mean. A brief glossary

is given in the table below, and all the functions will be explained in detail later.

If no indication appears in a particular position in the display, the function is turned off apart

from the typing mode, where no display means normal typing mode.

Changing Settings

9“O-J

INPsil

Those functions permanently shown on the top line of the display (apart from [SHIFTj and [SHIFT LOCK]) are changed by holding down the [CODE] key and pressing the key for the function to be changed, Some of these functions are simply toggled on or off each

time the function key is pressed. Others cycle through a number of different settings as the function key is pressed repeatedly.

Those functions that are only displayed when the [ALT] key is pressed can be changed

by pressing the key for the function while the [ALT^ key is held down. These functions selected also work with the [CODE] key, but the [AL"n key allows the status of the

function to be viewed before pressingthe keyto change it, whereas the [CODE] key does

not display the function until the function key is pressed, which also changes the setting.

Note!

The status oftabs and margins is not shown on the display. These have to be set using the counter in the top right comer of the display.

Selecting Typing Mode

When used in TW mode, your typewriter has four distinct modes of operation:

Normal operation (manual carrier return)

Automatic carrier return

Display typing (line-by-line, left aligned)

Display typing (line-by-line, justified)

The typing mode is selected by holding down [ALT] and pressing the [OPERATE] key.

Each time [OPERATE] is pressed, the typing mode indication will change in the following sequence:

NORMAL (no display) —^ flUT —^ L/L ^ J!i>T —^ NORMAL

Normal (Manual Carrier Return)

In normal typing mode, your typewriter prints each character as it is typed. Carrier return

is accomplished manually, by pressing [RETURN] at ftie end of each line.

Pressing [RETURN] advances the paper by the number of lines set with [LINE] (1, 1.5

or 2) and returns the carrier to the left margin.

Selecting Typing Mode

The Hot Zone

The hot zone is an area that begins before the right margin and extends up to the right margin. You can set the start of the hot zone to be between 3 and 12 characters before

the right margin. This is independent of the typing pitch, so if you set the hot zone to 5

characters in 10 pitch, it will still be 5 characters if you change to 15 pitch.

The hot zone helps you to keep your typed lines neatly within the margins by giving you a warning when you are getting close to the right margin. When the carrier enters the hot zone, the beeper will sound. You then have the remainder of the hot zone in which to finish off your line by ending a word and pressing [RETURN], or by splitting a word with

a hyphen and pressing [RETURN]. If you do not press [RETURN] before the right margin is reached, the carrier will lock and no further typing is possible until either [RETURN] or

S +

[CODE] + [M REL] is pressed.

If the word you are currently typing cannot be hyphenated and is too long to fit on the line, you may wish to delete the portion of it you have already typed by pressing the

WORD OUT key

Alternatively, you can release the right margin by holding down [CODE] and pressing the mar;gin release key [M REL], in order to fit the word on the line. Of course, the word will

then extend beyond the right margin.

The hot zone is set by pressing [ALT] + [HZ SET]. This is described in more detail in the section on setting the line format.

The default setting of the hot zone is 6.

Automatic Carrier Return

Automatic carrier retum saves you having to press the [RETURN] key every time you reach the end of a line. This function works by automatically performing a camier returning whenever you end a word by pressing [SPACE] or split a word by pressing the hyphen key while the carrier is in the hot zone. The carrier will also return if you press the

[RETURN] key at any time.

To turn on the automatic carrier retum mode, hold down the [ALT] key and press the

[OPERATE] key until the typing mode indication changes to FlUT.

Selecting Typing Mode

Notes:

If you type up to the right margin with no spaces or hyphens in the hot zone, the beeper

will sound, the carrier will stop at the right margin and will not return automatically.

Press the [RETURN] key or [SPACE] to return the carrier or [CODE] + [M REL]to

continue typing past the right margin.

You cannot type a hyphen at the right margin position to breaka word and return the

carrier, if you have reached the right margin position and wish to hyphenate a word,

you can either use [CODE] ,+ [M REL] to continue typing past the right margin, or delete some characters using the character correction key [CORRECT], then type in the hyphen.

Typing On The Display

The normal and auto carrier return modes are fine for experienced touch typists who rarely make mistakes, but less skilled typists will find the two display typing modes very helpful, since you can see your text on the display before you print it, and correct it if necessary.

When you type on the display, the carrier moves across the paper so that you can see where yourtext will be printed, but it is not printed until a whole line has been typed. There are two different modes for display typing, LINE-BY-LINE and JUSTIFY.

Line-By-Line

To select line-by-line typing, hold down the [ALT] key and press the [OPERATE] key until Lx’L appears in the display,

L.-'L

In the line-by-line typing mode, the text is not printed as you type it, but is displayed on

the screen.

Depending on the margins you have set and the typing pitch, the entire line of text may

be too long to fit on the display, which is only 40 characLers wide. In this case, when the text reaches a point five characters from the right-hand side of the display it will scroll to the left.

In some cases you may wish to finish a word within the hot zone and type another short

word on the same line, or you may have a hyphenated phrase such as mother-in-law that

you do not want to split over two lines.

In this case you can use the permanent space or hyphen function.

To type a permanent space or hyphen, hold down the [CODE] key and press either the

[SPACE] or the [P HY] key. Your space or hyphen will be typed without the carrier

returning, and it will not return until you type a normal space or hyphen.

When you type a permanent space on the display, it is shown differently to distinguish it from a normal space.

In order to avoid loose lines, and to allow left-alignment of text that requires it, your typewriter will justify text only if it extends into the hot zone, and the line is ended by a space or hyphen.

lithe line is ended by a carrier return inside the hot zone, or before the hot zone is reached,

the line will be printed left-aligned.

Your typewriter has a number of functions that affect the overall layout and appearance of your document. These are shown in the table below, together with their factory settings.

Line Format Memory

If you frequently have to type different types of document, it can be tedious and timeconsuming to change the line format manually every time you have a different job to do.

Fortunately, yourtypewriter makes changing the line format easy, by having five memories in which line format information can be saved. The contents of all five line format memories

are factory setto the values given in the table above, but you can change them to suit your

own requirements.

Selecting A Line Format

To select a line format, hold down [ALT] and press the [FORMAT] key.

Setting the Line Format

Each time you press the [FORMAT] key, the FMT display on the status screen will change in the sequence; 1 ——^4—^5—^ 1.

When the machine is first used, all five format memories are the same, so the format functions displayed on the status screen will not change. Once you have changed the

contents of thefomat memories you will see these functions change as you cycle through

the five fomat memories,

The format memories are backed up. This means that the format information is not lost when the machine is switched off. Also, when you switch the machine on again, the

selected fomat will be the one that you were using when you switched the machine off.

Format Memory Reset

The fomat memories in your machine are factory set with the values mentioned earlier,

but it is quite likely that you will change them while using the machine. Should you wish to restore the factory settings at any time, you can do this quite simply,

1. Select the format number you wish to restore to factory settings, using [ALT] +

ALT

CANCa

[FORMAT],

2. Hold down the [ALT] key and press the [CORRECT] key.

3. The fomat memory will be restored to factory settings, and the following message will be displayed:

AiFORMfiT IS CHfiNGED TO DEFAULT SETTING,

Changing A Line Format

Changing the contents of a line fomat memory to suit your own requirements is very simple. Every time you make a change to one of the line fomat functions, the change is automatically saved in the fomat memory that you currently have selected.

Ifyouhave some workthat requires frequent format changes, and otherworkthat requires pre-defined fomats, it's a good idea to use fomat memory I as your “scratch” format memory and reserve the other four memories for your fixed formats.

Howto change the various functions that make up the line format infomation is described below.

Setting the Line Foimat

Note!

Margins, tabs and the hot zone cannot be changed in line-by-line or justified typing modes.

You must select NORMAL or AUTO modes when setting these items.

Setting Line Spacing

Yourtypewriter offers you three choices of line spacing: single line spacing, one and a half line spacing, and double line spacing. To select the desired line spacing, hold down [ALT] and press the [LINE] key. Each time [LINE] is pressed, the L<* SP display will change in the following sequence;

ALT

CMNCB.

•1.0 -1.5 2.0 1-0

Single line spacing piaces I/6 inch of space between lines.

One and a half line spacing places I/4 inch of space between lines.

Double line spacing piaces I/3 inch of space between lines.

Note!

The factory setting of line spacing is 1.0.

Setting Typing Pitch

Yourtypewriter offers you four choices of pitch:

Pica, or lO pitch (lO characters per inch)

Elite or 12 pitch (12 characters per inch)

Micron or 15 pitch (15 characters per inch)

ALT

CANCB.

PS or Proportional Spacing

10, 12 and 15 pitch are fixed pitches, i.e. the print carrier advances a fixed distance after typing any character. With proportional spacing, the distance the carrier advances after typing a character depends on the actual character width. Therefore, the number of characters per line in PS depends on what characters are typed, since you can get more I's on a line than M’s.

For the purposes of setting margins and tabs, the nominal or average character spacing of

PS can be taken as 12 pitch.

Setting the Line Format

To select the desired pitch, hold down [ALT] and press the [PITCH] key. Each time

[PITCH] is pressed, the PITCH display will change in the following sequence:

■10 -12 15 -> PS 10

lO pitch allows 120 characters to be typed per line.

12 pitch allows 144 characters to be typed per line.

15 pitch allows 180 characters to be typed per line,

The maximum characters per line in PS pitch is variable.

Note!

The factory setting of pitch is 10.

Margins And Page Length

The margin settings ofthetypewriterallowyouto determine the overall layout ofthe page.

Left and right margins define the overall width ofthe text and its horizontal position on

the page, Top margin (START SET) determines the vertical position ofthe text relative

to the top edge of the page, and page length (END SET) determines the overall height

of the text.

Preset Margins

When you first switch on your typewriter, the margins have been preset at the factory in

lO pitch and for single line spacing. If you change either of these, the preset margins will

vary, depending on the typing pitch and line spacing, as shown in the following table ,

Margin Release

The print carrier will normally not move outside the margins. However, on occasion, you

may wish to type outside the margins. It will also be necessary to move the carrier past the margins if you want to set margins outside the ones currently set.

To move to the left of the left margin:

1, Use [BKSP] or to move to the left margin.

2. Hold down [CODE] and pressthe MARGIN RELEASE key- [M REL] andthen continue to press [BKSP], -4— or —^ untilthe carrier reaches the place whereyou wish to begin typing or set a new left margin

Similarly to move past the right margin, press [M REL] when the margin is reached, then continue typing.

Setting Margins

If you do not wish to use the standard margins, you can set your own margins very easily.

Setting Left Margin

To set a new left margin:

1. Move the carriertothe new left mar;gin position using [SPACE], — [BKS P] and keys as necessary. If the new margin position is to the left of the old margin, you will need to use [CODE] + [M REL] before you can move outside the old margin.

2. Hold down the [CODE] key and press the LEFT MARGIN key - [L MAR], The left margin is now set

Setting Right Margin

To set a new right margin:

1. Move the carriertothe new right margin position using [SPACE], — [BK SP] and ^— as necessary.

2. Press the RIGHT MARGIN key - [R MAR], The right margin is now set,

If you wish to move beyond the existing right margin to set a new one, use [CODE] + [M REL] then [SPACE] or —If you use [SPACE], you should first ensure that the machine is in NORMAL typing mode, since you cannot use [SPACE] to move beyond the right margin in AUTO, LINE-BY-LINE orJUSTIFY modes, as the carrier will return if [SPACE] is pressed in the hot zone.

Setting Start Position (Top Margin)

Automatic paper insertion normally sets the paper so that typing will start approximately one inch (25.4 mm) from the top of the page. However, you can change this position using the START SET function, so that auto-insertion will set the paper to a start position anywhere between one and six inches (25.4 and 152.4 mm) from the top of the page.

To set the start position:

1. Insert a sheet of paper and press the [P INS] key to auto-insert the page.

The display will show the message; .¿iPRESS RTN«

However, if you wish to setthe start position you should not press [RETURN] at this stage.

2. Use [INDEX] and [R INDEX] to adjust the position of the page to where you wish

to begin typing,

3. Hold down [CODE] and press the START SET key - [S SET] to save that setting as

the start line.

Setting End Position (Page Length)

The appearance of multi-page documents is enhanced ifthetext ends at the same position on each page. Your typewriter allows you to set the page length using the END SET function, so that you cannot type below the end position.

To setthe end position;

1. First insert the paper as above, using the [P INS] key. Do not press [RETURN],

2. Use [INDEX] and [R INDEX] to adjust the paper to the desired end position.

3. Hold down [CODE] and press the END SET key - [E SET] to set the end position.

Setting the Line Format

Notes!

1. There must be at least 5 lines between the start position and the end position.

2. The end position cannot be more than 16.5 inches or 419 .1 mm from the top of the page.

3. The start and end positions are measured absolutely from the top edge of the page

and are completely independent of each other. Changing start position does not affect, end position, and vice versa.

4. When the carrier reaches the end of the page the following message will appear

^Ph0E end- press correct to continue.

If you wish to type an extra line, press the [CORRECT] key and continue typing.

If you wish to cancel the current page end setting, press [CODE] + [E SET] when the page end is reached.

Setting And Using Tabs

Tabs allow you to move the typing position quickly and automatically to a preset position. As their name suggests, they are useful for typing tables, and are also used for indenting

paragraphs.

Normal tabs

Normal tabs are left-aligned, i.e. the first letter of the text is aligned to the tab stop.

To set a normal tab:

1. Move the carrier to the position at which a tab is required.

2. Hold down [CODE] and press the TAB SET key - [T SET].

3. To use the tab stop, press theTAB k ey- [TAB], and the carrier will move to the tab position automatically.

Setting the Line Format

Notes!

1. When a tab is to be set in the same position as a decimal tab (see below), the decimal

tab in that position will be changed to a normal tab when [T SET] is pressed.

2. Tab positions are set according to the absolute position of the carrier (in units of 1/ 120 in.) based on the left edge, so they do not change even when the margins or pitch

have been changed,

3. A maximum of 30 tabs, including decimal tabs, can be set on your typewriter

Decimal Tabs

This function allows you to type columns of numbers aligned on a decimal point, or on the space after the last digit in the case of numbers that do not have a fractional component

(integers).

If you have text that needs to be right-aligned to a tab instead of left-aligned (i.e. aligned

on the last letter of the text instead of the firsts letter), you can use a decimal tab for this

purpose.

To set a decimal tab:

1. Move the carrier to the position at which a decimal tab is required.

2. Hold down [CODE] and press the DECIMAL TAB SET key- [DT SET] .To move the carrier to the decimal tab stop, press [TAB],

Notes!

1. When a decimal tab is set in the same position as a normal tab, the normal tab in that

position will be changed to a decimal tab when [CODE] + [DT SET] are pressed.

2. Decimal tab positions are set accordingto the absolute position of the carrier (in units

of i / 120 in.) based on the left edge, so they do not change even when the margins or pitch have been changed,

3. A maximum of 30 decimal tabs, including normal tabs, can be set on your Lypewriter.

Using Decimal Tabs

Typing text at a decimal tab is different from typing at a normal tab. Since text at a decimal tab is aligned on the decimal point or the space after an integer number, your typewriter needs to know where this appears before it can print the text.

When you use the [TAB] key to move to a decimal tab stop, the message: ¿iDECIMfiL TPiE will appear on the top line of the display.

Setting the Line Format

Ifyour number has an integer part before the decimal point, type this in. Each character you

type will appear on the display, and the carrier will move one space to the left.

If your number has a decimal point, type this. The integer part of the number and the decimal point will be printed. You can then type the fractional part of the number, which

will be printed after the decimal point in the normal way.

If the number is an integer, press [TAB] to print the number and move to the next tab position, or [RETURN] to print the number and end the line. '’’clh

The overall layout of your page Is determined by the margins, line

spacing and typing pitch. Text is normally printed left-aligned or

justified, depending on which typing mode is selected. In addition,

you may wish to change the layout of the text locally, by right or left

aligning it, by centering, or by indenting lines and paragraphs.

Indentation

Your typewriter can perform both line indentation and paragraph indentation,

Line Indentation

The line indentation function allows you to indent the first line of your paragraphs in one step without spacing or setting a tab. With the carrier at the left margin, hold down the

[CODE] key and press the [L IND] key. The carrier will automatically move over five

spaces and wait for you to begin typing. Each time you press the [L IND] key, the carrier will move 5 spaces to the right

Centering

Your typewriter allows you to type three different kinds of centered text:

-centered between the margins.

-centered between adjacent tabs.

-centered around the current position of the carrier.

Centering Between Margins

To type text centered between margins:

1. Return the carrier to the left margin.

2. Hold down the [CODE] key and press the [CTR] key. The message -¿3CEHTERIH0

will appear on the top line ofthe display, and the carrier will move to a position midway

between the left and right margins and place the machine in the centering mode.

3. Type in your text. When you type, the characters will not be printed on the page, but will appear on the display, and the carrier will move half a space to the left for every character and space you type. In the expand mode the carrier moves one full space to the left for every character and space you type.

4. When you have finished typing the line, press the [RETURN] key to printthe line and

perform a carrier return. After printing, the machine will leave the centering mode.

5. Centering can also be selected by pressingthe MENU key, pressing [1 ] to select CTR/

RMF and pressing [1] again to select CTR.

Centering Between Tabs

Centering between tabs allows you to create tables in which the items in a column are aligned centrally above one another, instead of left-aligned, right aligned, or decimal aligned.

To center between tabs:

1. Use the [TAB] key to move the carrier to a tab position.

2. Hold down the [CODE] key and press the [CTR] key, or select centering using the

[MENU] key.

3. Type in the text as before.

4. Press [TAB] to print the text and move to the next tab, or [RETURN] to print the

text and perform a carrier return. The text will be centered about a point midway

between the tab and the next tab to the right.

Text Alignment in TW Mode

Notes!

1. You cannot center between the left margin and a tab, because centering carried out with the carrier at the left margin is assumed to be centering between margins.

2. You can create as many columns of tab-centered text as you like, up to the limit of 30 tab positions. However, if you try to type text whose width exceeds the distance between the adjacenttabs, the beeperwill sound and nofurthertypingwill be possible. This prevents the possibility of columns overlapping.

Centering At The Carrier Position

To center text around the current carrier position:

1. Move the carrier to the required position.

2. Hold down the [CODE] key and press the [CTR] key, or select centering using the

[MENU] key..

3. Type in the text as before and press [TAB] or [RETURN] to print it It will be centered

around the current carrier position.

Notes!

1. You cannot centertext around the current carrier position atthe left margin, orifthere is a tab at that position.

2. Text typed on the display in centering mode can be corrected in the same way as normal display typing,

3. To leave the centering mode before any data has been input, pressing [CODE] +

[CANCEL] or [CODE] + [CTR] keys will release yourtypewriterfromthe centering

mode.

Right Margin Flush

Right margin flush automatically aligns text flush with the right margin. To type text right margin flush:

1. Hold down the [CODE] key and press the [RMF] key while the carrier is anywhere to the left ofthe right margin. The message xiR IGHT MPRGIH FLUb-H will appear

2, Type in the text. When you type, the characters will not be printed but will appear

on the display, and the carrier will move one space to the left for every character you subsequently type (two in the expanded mode).

Text Alignment in TW Mode

3. When you have finished typingthe line, pressthe [TAB] key or [RETURN] keyto print

the line and perform a carrier return. After printing, the machine will leave the right

margin flush r7^ode.

Notes!

I. Text typed on the display in right margin flush mode can be corrected in the same way

as normal display typing,

To leave the right margin flush mode before anything has been typed, pressing

[CODE] + [CANCEL] or [CODE] + [RMF] keys will release your typewriter from

the right margin flush mode and relocate the carrier to its previous position.

Right margin flush can also be selected by pressing the MENU key, pressing [1] to

select CTR/RMF and [2] to select RMF.

Formatting and text alignment functions change the overall layout of text on the page. This section looks at keys that are used to change the appearance of the actual characters typed. Most of these functions operate in a similar way in WP mode as when

typing on the display in TW mode.

Shift And Caps Keys

Your typewriter normally prints lower case letters and numerals, plus the punctuation

marks and symbols shown on the lower part of other keys. However, you will often want

to type upper case letters (for beginning a sentence etc.) and the symbols shown on the

upper part of other keys.

The [SHIFT], [SHIFT LOCK] and [CAPS] keys allow you to do this.

Shift

There are two shift keys, one on each side of the keyboard. If you hold down either of the

[SHIFT] keys, you may type upper case letters and the upper characters shown on other

keys, Releasing this key automatically returns the keyboard to the lower case mode, The shift keys are generally used if you only want to capitalise the first letter of a word, or for inserting punctuation marks and other symbols,

While the keyboard is in CAPS mode you can still access the upper characters on non

letter keys by pressing the [SHIFT] key or the [SHIFT LOCK] key, because the SHIFT mode overrides the CAPS mode.

Some keys have characters printed on them in green. These characters are printed by holding down the [CODE] key and pressing the appropriate character key. A table of

these characters is also given in the Appendix at the back of this manual.

Bold Text

Place your typewriter in the bold typing mode by holding down the [CODE] key and pressing the [BOLD] key until BLD appears in the display. All characters subsequently

typed will be printed in bold.

Holding down the [ALT] key and pressing the [BOLD] key once again will clear the bold

function and return the typewriter to the normal mode.

Notes!

1, The bold function can be performed in the centring, right margin flush, and decimal

Continuous Underline

To switch on continuous underlining, hold down the [ALT] key and press the [UNDLN] key until CNT appears in the display. While your typewriter is in this mode, all characters and spaces typed will be underlined,

To cancel continuous underline mode, holddown the [ALT] key and press the [UNDLN] key until there is no underline indicator in the display.

Word-By-Word Underline

Word-by-word underlining underlines all characters except spaces. To switch on word-

by-word underlining, hold down the [ALT] key and press the [UNDLN] key twice, until

i.i.lRD appears in the display.

To cancel the word-by-word underline mode, hold down the [ALT] key and press the

[UNDLN] key once, so that the underline indicator disappears from the display.

Subscript And Superscript

If you have to type mathematical or scientific documents, you may find the need for subscript and superscript characters. These can easily be typed, either on paper or on the display.

+ B /Q

Subscript

To type subscript text, press [CODE] + [.] to enter subscript mode. The typing line will move down by 1/ 12 inch (i.e. the paper will move up).

Type the subscript text, then press [CODE] + [,] again to return to normal typing.

Superscript

Superscript is the reverse of superscript. Press [CODE] + [,], and the typing line will move up by 1 /12 inch (i.e. the paper will move down).

Type the superscript text, then press [CODE] + [.] to return to normal typing,

Text Attributes

Notes!

I. When typing on the display, the shape of the cursor changes to B for superscript and

■ for subscript. Superscript and subscript text already typed are indicated by the subscript or superscript marker alternating with the text.

2. In NORMAL and AUTO typing modes you can have two levels of subscript or superscript by pressing [CODE] + [.] or [CODE] + [,] twice.

You cannot do this in the display typing modes, since only one level of subscript can be

shown on the display.

3. Subscript and superscript text can also be bold, underlined and/or expanded.

4. The index and reverse index keys [R INDEX] or [INDEX] are not normally used for

subscript and superscript, since holding them down can move the paper continuously.

However, if you want the displacement of subscript or superscript characters to be less than 1 /12 inch, use them with the [CODE] key ([CODE] + [R INDEX] or

[CODE] + [INDEX]) and the vertical movement of the carrier is only 1 /48 inch. This

does not work when typing on the display.

5. If use of the [R INDEX] or [INDEX] keys moves the platen up or down by more than

1/4 inch, the line comection memory is cleared, since the typewriter cannot return the

paper accurately back to its original position for automatic correction.

Dead Keys

Dead keys are used for diacritical marks (e.g. accents) that may be placed over typed

characters. The carrier does not move when a dead key is pressed, so the character

beneath the accent can be typed without having to backspace. When a dead key is pressed in the underline mode, the dead key character will not be underlined.

Note!

When typing on the display, the dead character alternates with the base character. For

example même is displayed as:

merfie ^ ^ ri'ieme

Superimposed Characters

On some occasions you may wish to superimpose two characters. For example, you may wish to type a hyphen through a 7 to make a continental-style 7,

It's fairly obvious that you can do this in NORMAL and AUTO modes by backspacing and typing the hyphen on top of the 7.

Text Attributes

However, if you try to do this when typing on the display, backspacing deletes the 7.

To get around this:

1. Type the 7.

2. Hold down [CODE] and press [BKSP], The 7 is not deleted.

3. Type the hyphen.

The 7 and the hyphen will alternate in the display, and both of them will be printed,

Extra Characters

The extra characters printed in green on the bottom half of some of the keys are typed by holding down the [CODE] key and pressing those keys.

A list of characters accessed by the code key is given in the Appendix.

Setting Impact

Typing impact may be adjusted according to the quality and thickness of the paper you wish to use, or to the number of carbon copies you are making.

Select the desired impact force by holding down the [ALT] key and pressing [IMPACT] until the required impact setting appears in the display. Each time [IMPACT] is pressed, the IMP display changes in the sequence:

Selecting Keyboard

A Prestige 1012 daisy wheel is supplied with your typewriter. However, a wide range of other daisy wheels is available for your typewriter. As well as having different typefaces, some of these daisy wheels have different sets of characters to suit different applications. Your typewriter has three keyboard settings that can be changed at the press of a key to allow it to work properly with commonly-used types of daisy wiieel.

For users who frequently wish to type in foreign languages, a wider range of multilingual keyboard settings is available through the SET UP menu, to allow your typewriter to work

with many different foreign daisy wheels.

ALT

CANca

1 (Standard)

This is the keyboard that you will probably use most of the time with "ENGLISH” daisy

wheels. When an English daisy wheel is used with keyboard I, the characters shown on

the left side of the keytop are printed.

2 (International)

This keyboard should be used when an optional "INTERNATIONAL” daisy wheel has been inserted. You may have noticed that some of the keytops have characters printed on the right side as well as on the left. When an international daisy wheel is used and keyboard 2 is selected, these characters are printed instead of the characters shown on the left side of the keytop. A complete table of these extra characters is given in the Appendix

3 (Symbol)

This keyboard is for when you need to type mathennatical formulae or equations that

require special symbols, usingthe optional “SYMBOL” daisywheel. The symbol keyboard layout is shown in Appendix A.

To select the desired keyboard, hold down [ALT] and press the [KB] key, until the required keyboard setting appears in the display. Each time you press [KB], the KB display will change in the sequence:

KB5 -1 2 —> 3 -> 1

Note!

The default keyboard setting is keyboard I,

Text Attnbutes

Making corrections on your typewriter has never been easier. Your typewriter has a two-line correction memory that stores all the characters typed on the current and previous lines in TW mode.

This allows you automatically to delete a character, a word, or a

whole line of incorrect text, and replace it with correct text In WP

mode you can correct any part of your document

Similar correction functions are available in both TW and WP modes, though the exact

way they operate depends on which mode you are using.

If you are typing On the display or using WP mode, you can make your corrections before even committing the text to paper. If you are typing in NORMAL or AUTO modes, you can automatically remove incomect text with the correction tape, before typing in the correct text.

Corrections In NORMAL And AUTO mode

In NORMAL and AUTO modes, text is printed as you type it, so if you make any mistakes you must remove the old text with the correction ribbon before typing in the new text.

Character Correction

To correct a character automatically:

I. Use [SPACE], [BKSP], or [INDEX] or [R INDEX] as required, to move the

carriage directly overthe incorrect character.

Making Corrections

2. Press [CORRECn.

3. If you wish to erase more characters to the left of the one you just erased, press [CORRECT] again.

4. You may type the correct character, or move on as necessary.

Notes!

1. The automatic correction function works on bold, subscript, superscript, dead and underlined characters.

2. If you superimpose two characters for any reason, the automatic charactercorrection works only on the second character. The first character should be corrected manually.

Word Out

The word out function will remove a whole or partial word from your document. To

remove a word:

I. Position the carriage on the last character of the word that you wish to delete, or tfie

space after it. If you wish to delete only part of a word, position the carriage on the

last character to be deleted.

Insertions And Deletions

Instead of replacing incorrect characters or words with ones having the same number of characters, you may wish to insert extra characters, or delete them, or replace entire words with new ones having more or less characters.

Inthis case you may find that there istoo little space available to makethecorrTection without running into the next word, or too much space so that a big gap is left.

MicrO'Spacing and backspacing [CODE] + —^, [CODE] + ^—, [CODE] + [BS I], allow fine adjustment of the spacing of your corrections, so it is not apparent that insertions or deletions have been made.

Insertions

If you try to insert an extra character into a word, you will be left with no space between it and the next word. You can even this up by moving the whole word half a space to the left, as follows:

I, Use word out to delete the incorrect word.

Press [WORD OUT].

Corrections in L/L, JUSTIFY And WP Modes

When typing on the display, correction is done on the display before the line is printed. In WP mode you can, of course, correct any part of the document at any time.

Inserting Or Overwriting Text

When inserting extra characters or words in display typing, you don’t need to worry about

making space on the page for the new words, just turn on the INSERT function. When replacingtextwith newtext,you don’t have to erase the old text first, you can simply

overwrite it if the INSERT function is turned off.

Inserting Text

If you miss out some words or characters it’s very easy to insert them as follows:

I. Make sure that INSERT is turned on by pressing [CODE] + [INSERT]. The cursor

will change from 1 to 0, to indicate that insert is turned on.

Making Corrections

2. Move the cursor to the position at which you wish to insert the text, and begin typing. The text to the right of the cursor will be pushed along the line as the new text is inserted.

Deleting Incorrect Text

Like NORMAL and AUT O typing modes, there are three basic ways in which you can delete incorrect text. The only difference is that you do it on the display instead of on paper.

The correction keys work slightly differently from the NORMALand AUTO modes. When you press one of the correction keys, the character beneath the cursor position is not

deleted, so you must always position the cursor one character to the right of the last character you wish to delete.

Backspace Or Character Correction

When typing on the display, there is really no difference between these two operations.

The backspace key also acts as a delete key.

/VEUS

Use the cursor keys to position the cursor one space to the right ofthe character you wish

to delete. Press [BKSP] or [CORRECT] and the character to the left ofthe cursor will be

Drawing A Rectangular Frame

Drawing a simple frame is almost as easy as drawing lines. All you have to do is tell your

typewriter where the top-left and bottom right corners of the frame are, and it will do the

rest,

1. Begin in the same way as for drawing a line, by moving the carriage to the point where

you want the top left comer of the frame (A), and pressing the [FRAME] key. As with drawing a horizontal line, if you want the top line of the frame to be a double

line, press [=].

2. Now move the carriage down and to the right, to the point where you wantthe bottom right comer of the frame (B), In the example, the carriage is shown as moving down first, then to the right, but in fact you can move the carriage down and right in any sequence of steps.

If you want the bottom line of the frame to be a double line, press [=].

3. Press the [FRAME] key, followed by the [RETURN] key, as before. The frame will be printed, and the carriage will i-etum to the top left-hand corner of the frame.

3, Repeat this procedure for all the horizontal lines of the grid,

4, Now move the carnage right, to the position of the first, internal, vertical line of the

grid (E), and press the key for the vertical framing character (|),

5. Repeat the procedure for every (internal) vertical line in the grid,

6. Now move the carriage to the bottom right-hand comer of the grid, and press the [FRAME] key, followed by the [RETURN] key, as before.

Notes!

1. The above examples show only one way to draw frames and tabular grids. If you find it more convenient, you can move the carriage to the right first and define the vertical lines, before moving the carriage down and defining the horizontal lines.

2. The maximum number of horizontal lines in a grid is limited to 70. If you try to set more than this, the beeper will sound,

3. The maximum number of vertical lines in a grid is limited to 30. if you try to set more than this, the beeper will sound.

4. You must use daisywheels with the vertical bar(|) symbol forframing, otheoA^ise vertical

lines will be printed as periods.

5. You must use keyboard 2and an International daisywheel, orkeyboard 3 and asymbol

6. Framing only works when the default keyboard is selected for keyboard I, If you have

selected aforeign language keyboard for Keyboard I usingSET UP, framingwill network at all.

Frames With Complex Shapes

You may want to drawframes whose shape is not rectangular, or grids where the horizontal

and vertical lines do not extend all the wayto the edges. For example, you may want atable

to have a rectangular box the full width of the table across the top, Lo accommodate the

title. You can do this by building up the frame as a combination of several smaller frames.

Although your Brother typewriter can function as an ordinary

typewriter, once you have used its wordprocessing features you will probably never want to use it any other way, except for typing very short documents and envelopes.

Advantages Of Wordprocessors

You have already seen the advantages of the Line-by-line and Justify modes, which allow you to view and correct a line of text on the screen before you print it

The wordprocessor mode allows you to create and edit, not Just one line of text, but an entire document using the display screen, without doing any printing. Only when the document has been edited and corrected to your satisfaction do you need to commit it

to paper.

You can also save documents as files on floppy disk, and re-use or edtthem later. A more detailed explanation of files and use of the disk drive is given in the chapter on File Management If you have not used a machine with a disk drive before, we suggest you read that chapter first.

Using the Wordprocessor

If you are used to using an ordinary typewriter and have never used a wordprocessor, it may take you a little time to become familiar with the wordprocessor features of your

Brother typewriter.

However, once you see how easy it is to create perfect documents before committing

them to paper, you probably won't want to use your typewriter any other way.

Basic Wordprocessing

As with using ypurtypewriter in the TW mode, don't be afraid to experiment. You cannot damage the typewriter by pressing the wrong keys. The worst that can happen is that you

may waste some paper or delete some files from the disk.

Selecting WP Mode

To use your typewriter as a word processor.

I. It’s a good idea to have a disk in the disk drive, for saving your document on later.

However, you can use the wordprocessor without a disk in the drive.

If the disk has not been used before, you may get the following message:

dlHITISLIZE? V-'N

Press [Y] to initialize the disk. This may take a few minutes.

2. Press the [2] key to select WP from the MAIN MENU screen.

The following WP index screen will appear,

«!>jp ihdey:> iHElOhlLE-H

This screen tells you how many thousand (K) characters of space are left on the disk, and gives you the option of creating a new file in either printing or non-printing mode.

(NEWFILE.P or NEWFILE.N) NEWFILE is simply a blank file in which you can create a new document When saving

your document after creating it, you will need to give it a difterent file name.
