Description:
I got this pseudo-computer for free off FB Marketplace and plucked it right off the seller's lawn. It works just fine, but it is too automated for my liking. It does have these fancy type wheels, though, which are a nice perk. Shown below are Tempo 10, Presidential 12, Regency 10, which came with the machine, and Script 10/12.
This machine is functionally identical to practically all other 1990s Smith-Coronas, notably lacking a few features, which means this was probably a budget model.

I'm a relatively new collector hunting for anything inexpensive that I can get my hands on, functionality being a second thought. I have to learn somehow, right!?
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Smith Corona XL 2700 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Smith Corona Serial Number page and the Smith Corona XL 2700 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
