Volume Control

You can adjust the volume of the beeps heard from your unit by pressing

and holding Code, then pressing V. Display prompts:

Volume # –

(# lists a volume level from 0 through 10)

Volume has been set on medium at the factory. When you set the volume

level to 0, no beeps will be heard. When you change the volume level,

the new setting you select is stored unless you select 0. If the unit is

turned off while at the 0 selection, the volume level will be reset to

medium when it is turned on again.

Automatic Paper Insert

NOTE: Your typewriter easily handles 12” wide paper and a 9”

typing line. Standard bond paper stock is recommended

for best quality. Copier paper, erasable bonds and very

heavy textured bond papers do not print well with

Correctable Film Ribbon. For those paper types, we

recommend High Density Correctable Film or

Multi-Strike Ribbons. If typing stencils, use those

specifically designed for daisywheel printers.

1. Insert paper securely in the slot behind the platen (9) against the

paper alignment mark (8). (For 12” wide paper, center on the

platen area.)

2. Press Code + Left Shift/Paper In. Paper automatically advances to

approximately one inch from the top of the page.

3. Advance paper more, if necessary, using the Index Up/Down

feature (see “Other Features”) or Return key.

4. Push the paper release lever (5) back, and straighten the paper, if

necessary. Return lever to its original position.
