Wheelwriter Typewriter

Top-of-the-line technology

in a smaller typewriter

The new IBM Personal Wheelwriter® Typewriter provides many of the advantages of IBM Wheelwriter Typewriters but in a smaller package. You get the same excellent print quality, correction capability and classic touch that have made IBM Wheelwriter Typewriters the first choice among secretaries. Combine these benefits with the durability and reliability IBM builds into all its typewriters, and you’ve got a smart choice for your classroom, dorm room or office.

Like all IBM Wheelwriter Typewriters, the Personal Wheelwriter Typewriter prints fast—up to 16 characters per second. And it offers a choice of three pitch settings—1O, 12 or 15 characters per inch. What’s more, it works with the high-quality IBM supplies that bring out the best in all Wheelwriter Typewriters.

That’s just the beginning of the many features that put the Personal WheelwriterTypewriter in a special class. This streamlined machine’s semiautomatic paper feed makes inserting a page quick and easy. And the express cursor keys let you move almost anywhere on a page for manual corrections or last-minute changes. In addition, battery powered memory allows you to retain
your margin and tab settings whenever you turn off your machine or in the event of a power failure.

Do everything from dashing off letters to filling out forms. Sit down to your Personal Wheelwriter Typewriter, and you’re set to handle a variety of tasks— whether you’re a secretary, a student or a consultant working out of your home. With this versatile typewriter, you can produce professional-looking correspondence and client proposals alike. Or you can type term papers, reports—even fill out school applications and forms. Create a card catalog of prospective customers, or add labels and envelopes for a fund raising drive. There’s almost no limit to the things you can do.

Put words on paper, and take them off—fast. No matter what you’re typing with your Personal Wheelwriter Typewriter, its advanced electronics and functions make it easy to get your words on the page—and with flair. You can
automatically underline as you type. Type what you want emphasized in bold. Insert subscripts and superscripts to indicate footnotes. Center your text automatically. Or drop in a different IBM Cartridge Printwheel II for special type styles, special characters or foreign languages.

It’s not only putting words on paper that counts—taking them off is fast and easy, too. With the Personal Wheelwriter Typewriter, you can erase anything on the typing line automatically.

Gain extra opportunities with options.
As capable as the Personal Wheelwriter Typewriter is, it can still do more. Two available options are the reasons why. One, a printer interface, lets you print letter-quality pages from an IBM or IBM compatible personal computer. The other, the Personal Spell Check option, puts an online dictionary at your fingertips to help you produce error-free pages every time you type.

Highlights
Here are a few more of the features and functions that the IBM Personal Wheelwriter Typewriter offers you.

Automatic centering sets text between the right and left margins or at any point on a line.

Automatic carrier return allows you to type continuously and at top speed without pausing to make decisions about line breaks.

Caps lock speeds up all caps” typing but leaves numbers in lowercase.

Bold function offers an ideal way to emphasize important information.

Right Flush makes it easy to justify lines evenly at the right margin.

Subscript/superscript functions automatically move the paper for insertion of subscripts or superscripts—then automatically restore the print point to the original writing line.

Express cursor keys provide fast, flexible movement anywhere on a page.

Decimal tabulation permits easy alignment of columns of numbers in statistical applications. It eliminates the need to count and backspace.

Full-line correction allows you to lift off or erase up to 72 characters at a touch.
