BASIC TYPING 1) Returning the carrier manually RETURN EXPR Regardless of the option selected with [ALT] + [OPERATE], pressing [RETURN] will always return the carrier. When the auto carrier return function is off (first option above), pressing [RETURN] is the only way to return the carrier. Holding down this key will feed the paper repeatedly. 2) Returning the carrier automatically (SPACE BAR) UNCLN or When the "AUTO" option is selected, the carrier will return automatically every time, [SPACE BAR] or [-] (hyphen) is pressed in the hot zone. Note: When the "L/L" option is selected, the auto carrier return function is always activated. For details about these options, see "DISPLAY MODE" page 29. • Permanent Space CODE (SPACE BAR) If you want to type a space in the hot zone without triggering a carrier return, press [CODE] + [SPACE BAR]. An example of when you would use [CODE] + [SPACE BAR] would be when you need to keep two words on the same line. For instance, April 9, 1995. In this example, you would press [CODE] + [SPACE BAR] after the comma to prevent the year from moving to the next line. • Permanent hyphen CODE ) UNDLti For a similar reason, if you want to type a hyphen while in the hot zone without activating the auto carrier return, press [CODE] + 1-] (hyphen). For example, to type the telephone number 617-238-7098, you would press [CODE] + [-] (hyphen) after 238 if this hyphen is in the hot zone. Backspacing You may need to move backward along the line you have just typed. This is called "backspacing". 18

press
[CODE]

An
example
of
when

1995.
In
this
example,
you
would
press

type
the

to
move
backward
along
the
line
you
have
just typed.
This
is
called
"backspacing".
