In this paper we propose nontrivial codes that achieve a non-zero zero-error rate for several odd-letter noisy-typewriter channels. Some of these codes (specifically those which are defined for a number of letters of the channel of the form 2^n+1) achieve the best-known lower bound on the zero-error capacity. We build the codes using linear codes over rings as we do not require the multiplicative inverse to build the codes. This is a joint work with Francisco Ruiz-Rodriguez.
