Description:
Includes original owners manual. The best quality printing thermal typewriter in my collection. The machine has an erasing feature when using the original ribbon cartridges, using an extra hot thermal head setting that pulls the film off the paper. The caps lock key on this machine acts like a computer keyboard (hit caps lock again to disengage), whereas on the older thermal machines the "shift" key had to be pressed to disengage caps lock.
