Typewriters
Typewriters are mechanical machines. Letters and symbols are embossed on metal bars, which strike a ribbon of ink. This leaves the inked impression of the character on a piece of paper that has been placed on the other side of the ribbon. Typewriters were common previous to computer keyboards and printers.
