Their guiding principles of innovation and quality are the foundation of their company and products. And now today, Royal resurrects the Classic! It's ideal for those who prefer a nostalgic décor, a retro look or an escape from digital technology.

The Perfect Gift for Aspiring Writers This classic typewriter makes the perfect gift! It comes out of the box with everything you need to get started. Just add paper and you are all set! Review: Love it - So pretty i loved it Review: it works - It is not authentic. The logo on the one I got is not straight so the manufacture is poor. You have to press very strong on the keyboard for the ink to be transferred to the paper. It looks good as a design, but don’t expect to write too much. The only thing that bothers is the twisted logo. The delivery was excellent though. ## Features - Construction: The Royal Classic Portable Manual Typewriter features all-metal construction, a wide 11-inch. carriage, 88 characters, and a black and red nylon ribbon - Usage: Ideal for those who prefer a nostalgic décor, a retro look, or an escape from digital technology - Includes: Comes with a pre-installed ribbon, storage case, and owner's manual - Classic Typewriter: A true wireless device the Portable Classic Manual is perfect for on-the-go authors - Retro Look: It's ideal for those who prefer a retro look or easy typing without electronics ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07SWTQ2J8 | | Additional Features | Portable | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Age range (description) | Adult | | Artistic Charcoal Form | Compressed Charcoal | | Best Sellers Rank | #39,069 in Office Products ( See Top 100 in Office Products ) #5 in Typewriters | | Body Shape | Round | | Brand | Royal | | Brand Name | Royal | | Closure Type | Snap | | Color | Purple | | Colour | Purple | | Customer Reviews | 3.6 out of 5 stars 1,681 Reviews | | Drill Point | Broad | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00022447791198 | | Grip Type | Smooth | | Hand Orientation | Left | | Hardness | H | | Included Components | manual | | Ink Base | Hybrid | | Ink Color | Black | | Ink colour | Black | | Item Dimensions | 46.2 x 42.9 x 19.6 centimeters | | Item Type Name | Classic Manual Typewriter (Purple) | | Item Weight | 454 g | | Line Size | 1.2mm | | Manufacturer | Royal Consumer | | Material | Metal | | Material Type | Metal | | Model Name | 79119Q | | Model Number | ROY79119Q | | Recommended Uses For Product | Writing | | Style | Classic | | Theme | Vintage Writing | | UPC | 022447791198 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | Writing Instrument Form | Graphite Pencil | | Writing Technique | mechanical | | Writing instrument form | Graphite Pencil | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** Adult - **Brand:** Royal - **Colour:** Purple - **Ink colour:** Black - **Writing instrument form:** Graphite Pencil ## Images ![Royal 79119Q Classic Manual Typewriter (Purple) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71xOej-rG6L.jpg) ![Royal 79119Q Classic Manual Typewriter (Purple) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71B4iS7lsfL.jpg) ![Royal 79119Q Classic Manual Typewriter (Purple) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71s2Nvixa1L.jpg) ![Royal 79119Q Classic Manual Typewriter (Purple) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Fwh08mfCL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Are replacement ribbons easy to find for this? Thanks!** A: FJA Products in Amazon sells them for $9.50, and is an American made company and are always willing to work with customers, that support and American made product! **Q: Line spacing cannot change** A: You can change from 1 to 1.5 to 2. Just like a regular manual typewriter. **Q: This royal tywriter 79119 q how i can get a registration card for the warranty** A: did not ask for the registration card. Sent the typewriter back. I thought it was poor quality and had problems getting it to work properly. Good luck! **Q: How do you change the ribbon?** A: 1) Remove the ribbon cover by pulling it back toward you. 2) Set the shift lock and move the ink setting to red. 3) Push up two typebars from opposite sides until they wedge in place near where they strike the platen. 4) Remove one ribbon spool by pulling the ribbon-holding finger out of the way, then lifting up on the spool. 5) Repeat on the other side, then remove the ribbon from the ribbon vibrator up near the platen. Take note of how the ribbon is threaded through the vibrator because you'll need to put the new ribbon in the same way. Do these steps in reverse order with a new ribbon. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love it *by S***K on 18 June 2022* So pretty i loved it ### ⭐⭐⭐ it works *by R***A on 24 June 2022* It is not authentic.
