Helpful Hints • A Stop instruction Is not used to insert text when the typewriter stops while printing. It is used only to stop printing to change printwheels or ribbons. • Stop instructions are automatically inserted for you when you change printwheel pitch or language. • A Stop instruction inserted at the beginning of a job, before a character is typed, will be ignored when you reprint. Erasing in Proportional Spacing (PS) Complete this section only if you have a PS (proportional spacing) printwheel. Do not complete this section if you are using a printwheel in 10, 12, or 15 pitch. If you need help changing the printwheel, see "Removing the Printwheel" on page 4-9 and "Installing the Printwheel" on page 4-10. The space allotted to each character depends on its width In proportional spacing. The space is measured in units. For example, a lowercase m is seven units wide and a lowercase l is three units wide. In 10, 12 and 15 pitch, each character is allotted the same space, regardless of its width. In proportional spacing (PS). it is usually easier to erase the entire word containing an incorrect character, and then retype the word correctly. Using the Correction key, you can erase a single letter. When erasing automatically or manually, position the printwheel pointer at the left edge of each incorrect character.
