"content": "Are there any typewriter experts here? I got this little guy the other day, it's a Privileg 300 T from the 70s I guess, judging by the design.\n\nThese seem to have been quite common, there's a lot of them on the used market, but I can't find much info about them. \n\nSo, does anyone know more about this machine or maybe has a link to a manual?\n\nAnd in particular, does anyone know what that lever on the left labeled \"H - L\" does? [Edit: it selects how hard the paper is hit]\n\n[Edit] Lots of great answers, thank you all very much! Have a look through the answers for more info, it seems to be a mechanism made by brother in probably 1974. \n\n#typewriter #schreibmaschine #retrotech\nhttps://assets.oldbytes.space/assets.oldbytes.space/media_attachments/files/112/891/728/556/605/517/original/02472711f3d3acd4.jpeg\n",
