IBM-made 101-key PS/2 Enhanced Keyboard variant made for the IBM Personal Typing System, variants of IBM Personal System/2 Model 30s with specialised software, hardware and possibly a printer. Compared to its base keyboard, it had numerous unique legends on its keycaps to suit its word-processing speciality, with many of these keys resembling those found on IBM Wheelwriter and Quietwriter electronic typewriters. It also had green Ctrl key legends instead of green Alt key legends. It required a modular SDL to PS/2 cable. There was also a IBM Space Saving Keyboard version of this keyboard.
