I have never used an IBM Wheelwriter 3500 in the past. There are all kinds of codes being used and I want to eliminate all of them and return to basic "factory" keyboard. How do I do this?

The WW15 does not have a recallable memory, it has a reprint memory that will repeat what you have JUST typed, code reprt top left kry on the keyboard will activate if you want a full memory get a WW5 or 6.

SOURCE: Typewriter won't return carriage

If cleaning and oiling the shaft doesn't work, the carrier motor is probably bad. Is there any noise when you hit return?

IBM Wheelwriter 3500.

Does the display show aP/W nomber other than 001?
If it does hold the code key,press and release the "L" key type 001 release the "L" key this sets the keyboard to U.S., if this works the cure is to replace the keyboard.
