It varied on the job. I have a book on London in the 1700's and it cites that women servants were paid from 30 to 40 shillings a year. One quarter of all London's working women were domestic servants, but this was only a job before marriage. A pattern drawer might earn 1 pound a week. They were employed in drawing patterns for calicoprinters, quilters, and embroiderers. There were merchants who earned from 200-400 pounds a year and left fortunes of 5,000 to 15,000. A middle class family could live on 50 pounds a year. Poor children went into workhouses and were paid nothing. Some mothers sold their children for transportation to the colonies or they were press ganged into the navy. Some ended up on merchant ships with the watermen taking all their wages.
Stamps did not exist in the 1700's. The first ones were issued in 1850 by Great Britain. Prior to that, postage, where mail was available, was paid for at the post office.

The typewriter hadn't been invented in the 1700's. You may be asking about scribes, such as those who reproduced original legal documents for distribution. For that answer, ask in another forum.
