Editing Mitsumi KPQ-E99ZC (section)

===KPQ-E99ZC-12===
The following example appears to be dated 1995 (the year digit on the label is illegible but is most likely "5"), using parts made in late 1994. The serial number also suggests December 1994. The keycaps are made from ABS, while the case is made of polystyrene and has not yellowed.

The hash key was deliberately defaced to demonstrate the way that surface printing can be removed through wear.

Total travel is hard to measure, but it is somewhere between 3.6 and 4 mm, with 4 mm being likely. Tactile force is around 70–75 g, which is likely to be heavier than it was when it was new (tactile force for KPQ Type is rated at 50±20 g).
