Abstract
An alterable storage unit is included in a control apparatus to store code conversion tables for transforming type data or type position data into various control data such as a hammer pressure, an amount of ribbon feed and an amount of proportional space. When a type element is replaced with another, code conversion tables concerned with the new type element are stored in the storage unit. This permits the code conversion tables to be altered or renewed concentratedly in the event of type element replacement.
