I have however never used the fully manual typewriters.. My favorite was an IBM with the 'globe' wheel (can't remember their real name)... My friend Denise had a hard time in typing class though, her machine had a broken "i" key, so she was always "Dense"

It's both--it's what was formally called a 'word processing typewriter'. Instead of printing to a central printer or a 100lb desktop printer, once the text was edited, it printed right off the machine just as a regular typewriter scrolled the paper up as you typed.Lavacarancher":3gc2ub1c said:It's a word processor
