PART I OVERVIEW OF YOUR TYPEWRITER
This typewriter isa very sophisticatedmachine, you willfind iteasier to use and
a lot mere convenient than an ordinary typewriter. The two main differences
between an ordinary typewriter and this machine are: 1) the LCD display, and
2) the spellchecker. Usually, the characters you typewill be immediately printed
on the paper and the display will only show the various settings of the machine.
The line you are typing is actively stored in the line correction memory to allow
for easy corrections of the text already printed. Sometimes, the machine will
need to know the contents ofthe line you are typing in order to print it at the
correct position.This happens, for instance, when you are centering your text.
In such a case, the text is temporarily displayed on the LCD. We will call this
feature the =display mode". Listed below is a short description of the printing and
display modes. When you switchyour machine on, you are in printing mode.
1. Printing mode
The pdnting modecorresponds tothe traditionalway of usinga typewriter: when
a character istyped, it is printedimmediately on the paper. The basic operations
that allow you to start in this mode are described in the chapter "Basic Typing"
(p.g).
When you use the printing mode, the characters you type do not appear onthe
display. The line correction memory actively records everything you are typing
on the current line. With this memory, you can erase any letter, word, or even
the whole line automatically. See"Memory Correction" (p.20) for more details.
