Description:
Found this great typewriter in Lac Mégantic, Québec, in the Appalachian mountains. One lady owner bought it new for personal use before selling it to me on May 9th, 2025.
Made in Japan for the Canadian French market. This model was also sold under the model number AX-550 in other markets.
This is the fully featured model with a 40 by 2 caracters LCD display, a speller check and 23 kilobytes of memory, enough for 10 pages or more of text. Selectable pitch of 10, 12 and, 15 cpi. Advanced correcting function keeping the full current line of caracters in memory.
It is configured for typing in French; the word speller function doesn't have any other language. Pas de problème!

Bonjour! I am from the region of Montreal, Quebec and moved to Ottawa, Ontario in 1992.
Amateur watchmaker and machinist, I love anything mechanical, hydraulic or electric. I have restored American and Canadian clocks and small lathes, milling machines and a jig bore.
Most of my typewriters have French Canadian QWERTY keyboards, with some exception for rare finds.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Brother GX-9000 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Brother Serial Number page and the Brother GX-9000 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
