[GreenKeys] Model 28 printer

[Steve Garrison]

I'm not sure I followed that Tony!

If a typing unit doesn't have the unshift on space option, then the unit stays either in letter or figures when the space character is received.  It doesn't have to "remember" the state and "change" anything.

Or have I missed something?
