Alt Mode

Special punctuation marks or accented characters on the right-hand side of keys can be added to the text using the Alt Mode.

Enter the Alt Mode by holding down the ALT key. The Alt indicator on the left side of the display (shown below) comes on while the ALT key is being held down.

For example, to type Ç, hold down the ALT key and push the letter "C".

Return Key

NOTE

A single block of text can only contain a maximum of 16 lines. If the maximum number of text lines has already been entered when the return key is pressed, an error message will appear: "16 LINE LIMIT".

Like a on computer, the 9600Ki's return key is used to end a line of text and start a new line. When you have finished entering one line, press the return key to make a new line and move the cursor to it.

The number of text lines that can be printed depends on the width of the tape.

Tape Width	Max. Number of Lines
1/4" (6 mm)	3
3/8" (9 mm)	4
1/2" (12 mm)	6
3/4" (18 mm)	10
1" (24 mm)	13
1-1/2" (36 mm)	16
Stamp 3/4" (18 mm)	6
Stamp 1" (24 mm)	10

New Block Function

NOTE

A single block can only contain a maximum of fifty text blocks. If the maximum number of text blocks has already been entered when the CODE key is held down and NEW BLOCK pressed, an error message will appear: "50 LINE LIMIT REACHED!". To split a text block into two, position the cursor under the character you want to start the new block, then hold down the CODE key and press the NEW BLOCK key.

In order for one section of text to have different number of lines than other sections, or in order to apply a different format to a section of text, a new block must be created using the New Block Function.

To create a new block, hold down the CODE Key and press the "NEW BLOCK" (return) key. A new block mark appears at the end of the block.
