    I have the FPE and you're right, they are heavy duty typers.

    the soft left margin is called "overbanking" The fix is easy and is covered in your Bible (:

    The Royal FP is a WAYYYYYY better typewriter than a 440, or most others for that matter. Good taste Gregory!

      Some people will beg to differ on that YYC each to their own.

      Yes, we all have different tastes. For example, I’m one of the few people to get excited about Royal Companions.

    My FPE also has things that I wonder if they are the machine or me! It’s likely me since I bought it reconditioned from our local typewriter guy. How does one identify and/or name the type faces?

      I looked up mine in the Royal FP/440/470 Typewriter Repair Bible from Ted Munk.

    I actually have this typewriter. I got it for free because my uncle bought a house and found it in there.

      You always hear about people asking if the appliances come with the house, but you never hear anyone asking if the typewriter does! Haha… Thanks for watching!

    Hi Gregory I read that you had or have a Canon Typestar 10-ii ? I have also but mine didn’t come with an instruction /owners manual so was wondering if yours came with one.. if it did come with yours wanted to know if you could possibly scan it n send it by email to me ? I’ve looked on the Internet they got manuals for other typestars but not the 10-ii .. Thank-you and have a nice day ,From Simba

    I could get one for $40 but they are so large.

      Yes, the more modern standard-size typewriters aren’t as valuable as many of the others. Thanks for watching!
