make sure the ribbon and correction tape are installed correctly between the metal fingers on the far side of the printwheel and the cardholder. make sure there is no forien objects in the P/W or anything touching the petals on the P/W. turn mach. off for 10 secounds then back on or just hold down the code key and hit the Q (reset) if it still doesn't work, it will need repair or replacement.

Try hitting [CODE] + [RESET] at the same time to reset the cartridge. Make sure the cassette is installed correctly.. the "ear" on the cassette should always be on the upper right.

Above the number keys are words in green or blue the margin release, L. mar. and R. mar. are there return to the L. margin, press the alt key with the mar. rel. release them, backspace to the location for the L. mzr press alt and L. margin key, R. margin works the same way.
