Hi Mark:
Way to go......... blame the dog.
What I don't understand is, if you have a computer, why are you not using WORD or a similar processor instead of a typewriter?
My opinion is that typewriters are really inefficient compared to word processors.
Cheers.

Providing you have the proper supplies and they are correctly installed you just type a wrong letter, press he correction (KEY WITH AN ARROW AND AN "X" ON IT).

TYPE WRITER DISPLAYS BUT WONT TYPE ANYTHING

There are many "WONT TYPE ANYTHING" symptoms and reasons, like:
is the ribbon installed? Is it installed correctly? Is the carriage moving?

Some description of your concern would be of great help.
I guess you don't have the User Manual.
Here you'll find the PDF version of the manual.

If it isn't in KBII or proportional space you probably have a broken print wheel homing pawl. You need a tech.

When typing, incorrect letters appear. For example, when typing the letter J, the number 8 appears etc. What can we do?

You will need to replace the daisy wheel.

WHEN YOU TYPE A LETTER LIKE J FOR EXAMPLE, IT DOESNT TYPE A J.. IT TYPES DIFFERENT LETTER .

If it always types the same wrong letter you are probably in a language mode or the pitch is in ps. If the letter changes after you turn it off and on the homing pawl spring is bad you need a tech.

Warning sound, didn't move

Check to be sure the correction tape isn't tangled in the print wheel. If it is or was check the wheel to be sure it isn't damaged,
Then try it without the correction tape.
