Description:
This typewriter is an heirloom from my grandmother. The serial number is scratched off, but I can make sense of the fading numbers. The Backspace, erase, print on/off, and index keys require service.
EDIT:
I serviced the typewriter and now it works perfectly, just as intended. Now I can type diacritics!

Hi! I'm Farabi, ever since my grandmother gave me her old Brother GX-6750 typewriter, I've been interested in these. I'm from Bogor, Indonesia, so typewriters here are rare as people have moved to PCs and newer technology, but it will never stop me from collecting them! The only place where they still sell typewriters in West Java (as far as I know) is located in Bandung, some 200 kms away, and not only do they sell typewriters, they have the only, and I repeat, THE ONLY typewriter service in West Java (or for all of Indonesia, for that matter). Please forgive my English, it's not my first language... ^^'
You can visit my website if you want, I'm just putting it here because I'm desperate for traffic (because, let's be honest, who wouldn't want traffic) and an attention-seeking raccoon.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Panasonic KX-R305 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Panasonic Serial Number page and the Panasonic KX-R305 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
