key. The yellow indicator will light
up. To deactivate the caps lock key, press either of the shift keys.
ACCENT KEYS
When an accent key is pressed, the printer unit does not move. Type the accent first

CORRECTING ERRORS
ON THE CURRENT LINE
The characters typed or printed on the current line are stored in the memory. So, if you
notice an error before you reach the end of a line, you can correct it by carrying out one
of the following procedures.
Correcting the last character typed:
1.

space back and delete the character; if it is on the display, it will be removed.
Several characters can be deleted in sequence from right to left by holding the
delete key pressed.
