OF
YOUR

This

is
a
very
sophisticated
machine,
you
will

and
a
lot
more
convenient
than
an
ordinary
typewriter.
The
two
main
differences
between
an
ordinary
typewriter
and
this
machine
are:
1)
the
LCD
display,
and
2)
the
spell
checker.
Usually,

be
immediately
printed

stored
in
the

correction
memory
to

need
to
know
the
contents
of
the
line

in
order
to
print
it
at
the
correct
position.
This
happens,

when

a
case,
