First check check the pitch selector switch to be sure it is not in proportional spacing. if it isn't push down on it and see if it goes away, if is goes away the keyboard needs repaired.

Check the pitch slide switch in the left of the keyboard, it should be in 10 or 12 if it is slide it up and down they do get dirty.

I am not able to type the @ symbol on my Brother typewriter. Model #EM-530. I have tried everything it is driving me crazy. Thanks for your help!!

If it is typing the alternate symbol on the key you are in KBII. The code key with the key in the top row labeled KBII will get you out of that mode.

Our typewriter is not typing the correct key strokes ex. if you type k it types Q or some other foreign symbol? Please help! Thanks

If you aren't in KBII or a language mode or P.S. pitch the printwheel homing pawl is probably broken. You need a tech.

The keys are typing different symbols. How can I get it back to normal? If I type R it makes a random symbol or types "j". Help!

If you are not in KBII, proportional space or a language mode the print wheel homing pawl is broken, you need a tech.
