A manual typewriter typically features a keyboard for inputting text, a platen (roller) that holds the paper, and a carriage that moves horizontally to advance the paper after each line. It operates using mechanical levers and hammers that strike the ribbon to imprint characters onto the paper. Additionally, manual typewriters often include a shift key for capital letters and special characters, as well as a key for returning the carriage to the starting position at the end of a line. Their portable design and absence of electrical components make them a nostalgic choice for writers and enthusiasts.
