The answer

This act of selling copies of the Qur'an with a good intention is a good deed, but it is not considered an ongoing charity ( jariyah) because you are selling the Qur'an copies and not endowing them. As for the presence of a typographical error, it does not affect the permissibility and validity of the sale, and there is no sin upon you in that, as it is something difficult to guard against.
