Character keys
Typing with the character keys is very much like typing on a
typewriter, except that:
❖
The space bar creates a space character instead of just passing
over an area of the page.
❖
The lowercase letter l (el) and the number 1 are not
interchangeable.
❖
The uppercase letter O and the number 0 are not
interchangeable.
Making your keyboard emulate a full-size keyboard
This section applies to the P740 series.
Although your computer’s keyboard layout is compatible with a
standard full-size keyboard, it includes fewer keys.
A standard full-size keyboard includes two
Enter
,
Ctrl
, and
Alt
keys;
editing keys; cursor positioning keys; and a numeric keypad.
Your computer’s keyboard includes only one
Enter
key. Most of the
time, this does not matter. However, some programs assign separate
functions to the regular and numeric pad
Enter
keys on the full-sized
keyboard. Using the
Fn
key, you can simulate the separate key, as
follows: Press
Fn
and
Enter
simultaneously to simulate the
Enter
key
on the numeric pad of the enhanced keyboard. Pressing the
Fn
key
simultaneously in combination with one of the specially marked
keys allows you to emulate a full-size keyboard.
