Description:
A typewriter is a mechanical or electro mechanical machine for writing characters similar to those produced by printer's movable type. A typewriter operates by means of keys that strike a ribbon to transmit ink or carbon impressions onto paper. Typically, a single character is printed on each key press. The machine prints characters by making ink impressions of type elements similar to the sorts used in movable type letterpress printing. At the end of the nineteenth century, the term typewriter was also applied to a person who used a typing machine.
Insight: My aunt has typewriter and she’s still using this until today. It is useful when you share the information through a hard copy. But, as what as I’ve observed in my aunt during typing something using the typewriter is that, you will use lots of paper because it is hassle when you had a mistake in typing and there’s no turning back since you can’t erase it.
