My IBM Wheelwriter 1000 by Lexmark does not have a section for changing the pitch, however, the ruler indicates that the typewriter is capable of pitch change. Is there a particular code required to condence the pitch on a font style already in the typewriter?

Joany, look for a function,usually on the left side of the keyboard on the IBM,that has the markings 10,12 and 15. And if my memory is correct,there will be a series of lamps which light up at the selected pitch. I would look for a key marked "pitch" and press that. Good luck.
