@TheEuropeanChef dude im with u im getting a manual Royal Traveler II tomorrow for my birthday

[TheEuropeanChef]

Nice, but I like the manual ones better

[MaggiesRevenge]

Nice! How old is this typewriter? Circa 90's maybe?

By the way, I pulled down the little tab thing to see what other videos you have, and I noticed your Vic Mignogna at ACen videos, which I think is awesome because a) I love Vic Mignogna and b) I go to ACen when it comes around! Yeah, just felt like saying that... :)

Hello, I'm having problems with my Brother Sx-4000. I just bought this about 3 days ago. I have it running and all, but when i begin to type things (ex: when I punch in "T" the typewriter types "S"). Please may you help me with this if you can figure it out. Thank you very much.

Cool!!!!! Does it write random words or do you do something?

Like the tape!!!!!!!

its a ghost... and its speaking to us... :P

[tenkei03]

Thanks! I'm thinking of buying this machine. Nice to see a demo of it.

Just bought the european version of the machine:

First had Problems with paper transport and the second one wrote totally wrong letters after a short while.

I hope i will get satisfaction with the third one^^

Well, in Germany you say all good things are three.

Are you still using your Sx-4000?

Regards

[BigErik1984]

As a matter of fact, I am. It's still pretty useful, great for writing letters.

i saw a nice smith-corona at a garage sale last summer...i was a few cents short so i headed back to my house to get the money but i was lost and so tired from hauling around the suburban maze i live in with a backpack full of loot on my bike i just ended up passing out on the sofa instead...I wish i could have gotten it, but i had ended up forgetting where the old lady lived.

It's been about 20 years (around 1990) since the typewriter fell out of the mainstream. Definately something you should hold on to with it's retro appeal.

[josephdupont]

I just bought a new one.. need help running.

[rockmusicpones]

[MattMustang22]

lmao thats what im using it for

[pylgrym]

Yeh - who needs a point!? Isn't THAT a point?

[garycalgary]

wastes a lot of ink for a demonstration

i had a brother AX-18 and it did the same thing

i still love electronic typewriters

[jcsf9]

the IBM Wheelwriter series types faster than the Brother typewriters

[Japanesegurl6]

[gabylando27]
