Press [CODE] + [L] (L PRINT) again to terminate the line printing function. The text you have typed remains in memory. You can print it, edit it, or store it to the diskette.

The diskette pops out and you can take it out. INITIALIZING A DISKETTE Before using a new diskette or a diskette that has been used with any other wordprocessor, you must initialize it.
