Press and hold either key to move the printhead continuously to the left. -> or [SPACEBAR] Moves the printhead one space to the right. Press and hold either key to move the printhead continuously to the right until it reaches column 105. [up arrow] Moves the printing position up one line according to the line space setting. Press and hold the key to move the printing position continuously upward. [down arrow] Moves the printing position down one line according to the line space setting. Press and hold the key to move the printing position continuously downward. [CODE]+[<-](EXPRESS) Moves the printhead to the left margin. [CODE]+[END] (BEGIN) [CODE]+[->](EXPRESS) Moves the printhead to the right margin and further again to the right by 10 steps. If there is text on the line, the printhead stops at the end of it first. [END] Moves the printhead to the next space following the last character in a line. [ALT]+[<-](WORD L) Moves the printhead to the beginning of the word to the left. Press and hold this key combination to move the printhead continuously to the left from word to word. [ALT]+[->](WORD R) Moves the printhead to the beginning of the word to the right.

MARGINS AND TABS Identifying preset margins and tabs: When you turn on the WP-100's power, the preset margins and a tab for line indent are set and displayed on the ruler. (If you have changed the margins before you switch to the typewriter mode, those new margins are set automatically.) The preset left margin is set at column 10 and the right margin is set at column 75. A tab is set at 15. The ruler scale corresponds to the scale on the paper bail. You can find the margin/tab positions on paper by using these scales. To set new margins: 1. Position the printhead at the point where you want to set a new margin by pressing <- or ->. 2. Press [MAR L] to set a new left margin. The L on the ruler moves to the new left margin column. Press [CODE] + [MAR L] (MAR R) to set a new right margin. The R on the ruler moves to the new right margin column. NOTE: You can not set left and right margins that are less than 10 spaces apart. To set a tab: A maximum of 16 tabs can be set. 1. Position the printhead at the point where you want to set a tab. 2. Press [TAB SET]. A short vertical line ³ appears on the ruler at the position designated by the printhead. To clear a tab: 1. Position the printhead at the tab position or anywhere to the left. 2. Press [CODE] + [TAB SET] (TAB CLR). The ³ on the ruler at that position disappears. If you press and hold this key combination, the following tabs to the right of the printhead are cleared one by one. To use a tab: 1. Press [TAB]. The printhead moves to the next tab position to the right. 2. Type the text. CORRECTION In the typewriter mode, all characters typed in the current line are stored in the correction memory. You can automatically correct individual characters, a word, or an entire line. Characters outside the one-line correction memory can be corrected manually. To correct characters: 1. Position the printhead one space to the right of the character to be corrected by pressing <- or [BACKSPACE]. 2. Press [, [BACKSPACE, [SPACEBAR], or [CODE] + [SPACEBAR] (MICROSPACE). 3. Press [CODE] + , [TAB], [CODE] + [TAB] (DEC TAB), or <ΔΩ instead of a decimal point. The right end of the characters aligns at the tab position. AUTO RETURN This function is automatically activated to return the printhead at the end of each line. When you type a space or hyphen after the printhead enters the hot zone, the printhead automatically returns to the left margin on the next line. You can clear auto return when you do not want to use it (for example, when you do not want to separate two words at the end of a line). 1. Press [CODE] + [0] (A-RETURN). AUTO RETURN disappears from the screen. 2. Type the text. Press <ΔΩ at the end of each line to return the printhead. 3. To reset auto return, press [CODE] + [0] (A-RETURN) again.
