When you’re scanning an IBM 6747 instruction guide with 150-plus pages it helps when those pages are hole punched in a ring binder …
No mold, no yellowed pages, no rusted staples, no dramas getting the pages to lie flat and flush on the bed of the scanner …
The original guide has five sections:
- Setup Instructions
- Basic Features
- Advanced Features
- Storage
- Reference
From this I compiled two PDFs:
I excluded the Setup Instructions which, apart from three pages that show you how to remove and insert the batteries/battery holder (below), are non-essential pages related to unpacking the boxed typewriter.
A few more page previews …
Keyboard Height Adjustment …
Printwheels …
Printwheel keyboard IDs (a full list of alternate keyboard IDs/layouts is included in the Advanced Features section of the guide) …
Syllable and Permanent Hyphens …
Required Spaces …
Erasing in Proportional Spacing (PS) …
IBM EASYSTRIKE ribbons …
Separating the cassettes …
Latching the cassettes together …
Ordering Printwheels …
Storage …
Electronic Typewriter Instruction Guides
These instructions guides either came with the typewriters I purchased, or were purchased solely for the purpose of scanning and sharing FREE. A small donation, however, will make it easier for me to continue to add to this archive. Thank you.
