activated. It is set for general typing purposes. These settings remain

active until you change them or recall a file with different settings.

Margins and Tabs

Margins and tabs for Type Mode, Line Mode, and Mem Mode are set in

Type Mode, but can be changed in Mem Mode when text is recalled for

editing. Margins and tabs are set using the typing scale which appears

on the display in Type Mode. A blinking cursor indicates the typing

position. The letter “L” indicates your left margin setting. The letter “R”

indicates your right margin setting. In the example below, the left

margin is set at 12.

In Type Mode, to signal that you are near the right margin, the

typewriter will beep 5 spaces before the margin. In Mem Mode, the text

will automatically wrap to the next line.
