WhT keys do I use to get bold type. Just bought used typewriter, no instructions.

Above the top row of keys are words that indicate the code or alt function of these keys. By using the alt or code key and this key you should be able to turn on or off these functions.

Goto BROTHER.com, click on support, poke around and you will find a manual.

You are probably in the bold mode. There is either a key marked BOLD or one with bold in small letters that you must use the code key with.

It's called BOLD on that machine.

Press and hold down ALT key and Press RELOC/BS ½ (if you look it says BOLD above the key) You will hear 2 beeps

To cancel bold type [ALT] + [BOLD] again

The code key works with all the keys in the top row to set up those functions, bold, underlind, KDII, etc. The function allows you to type on the display befor printing.

Without having the operator manual what I recall on these types of type writers, they have a key next to the space bar called "Features Key."
Most keys are color labeled.
Select the bold feature, it's color origin,
1. Press and hold that features key
2. Touch the bold key, now you are in bold typing mode.
3. When you finish bold typing, press the features key and hold, then touch the bold to turn it off.

there is a key that has BOLD printed under the letter on the key, or it may be printed above the top keys on the keyboard, hold down the code key and hit the key under where it says BOLD, or the key that has it on it. to take it off, do the same thing

the WW 6-II doesn't have that feature

Press and hold the code key while pressing the B key.

The old WW5 dose not have a bold function. To get bold you need a later machine any that print bold will say bold in green on the "B" key.
