The print head might have accummulated a lot of paper bits you need to clear them with a needle or just submerge the tip in petrol or ether. Caution do not submerge if its made of plastic.

The striking hammer does not function
I know this is pretty basic but did you push thelever next to the print hammer to the back to latch the mech. to the rear?

We have a Smith Carona Wordsmith 250 Typewriter which is missing the paperguard, which sets up next to Platen roller, it is clear plastic and it is missing, and we can't use it because it doesn't type...
Google Smith Corona Wordsmith 250 parts, or contact typewriter repair shops. It it called a "cardholder."

Replacing wheel with the letters & numbers
Replace with letters facing foreward (towards paper).
If there is no plastic printwheel lever then,
Push the print hammer shroud gently foreward until it "clicks".

Types wrong Characters
Does it always type the same wrong letter ie a always prints u or w ? if so the print wheel drive gear is out of position. if not and it get random letters some thing may be interfering with the wheel rotation.
