 THE MONARCH –
by INTERTYPE COMPANY
Adaptability,
The Monarch is a keyboardless machine, designed specifically for tape operation. It
has a casting speed which can be varied
from 8 to 14 lines per minute. The
Monarch is operated by the newly
developed 750 impulses-per-minute
Fairchild Teletypesetter Operating Unit.
Magazines
The Monarch is a non-mixer linecasting
machine. It may be ordered in one, two,
three, or four-magazine models with
standard 90-channel Intertype Visilite magazines.
A Push Button Magazine Shift shifts
magazine frame from one operating
position to an adjacent position in a
matter of seconds by push button control.
Distributor
Double-thread Distributor-screws permit
feeding two matrices per revolution
instead of one, thus speeding up removal
of matrices from the distributor box without increasing the rate of lateral travel on the distributor bar.
SAFETY FEATURES OF MACHINE
The automatic double stack galley will accept up to 24 inches of slugs without attention from the
monitor. When the double stack is full, the Operating Unit is shut off automatically by the microswitch
at the left end of the galley.
The Distributor Safety Microswitch shuts off the Teletypesetter Operating Unit whenever the distributor
clutch is disengaged.
The loose line stop performs three functions; it shuts off the Teletypesetter Operating Units, locks the
assembling elevator in normal position and prevents the second elevator from seating at transfer
position. Thus the monitor can can return the loose line to casting position, set the quadder flush left
and cast the short line so it will appear in first proofs for subsequent corrections.
SERIAL NUMBER
No. 28681 was shipped early in 1960.

 MODELS A, B, C - INTERTYPES
ADAPTABILITY:
Models A, B, and C Intertype machines are adaptable
to Teletypesetter operation.
MAGAZINES:
Model A - Single 90-channel magazine.
Model B - Two 90-channel magazines.
Model C - Three 90-channel magazines.
Selection from one magazine at a time is controlled
from the keyboard, the operator must wait until
matrices selected have been distributed before
manually bringing any other magazine into operative
relationship with the keyboard and distributor.
This change in magazine position is accomplished
manually by turning a crank located above the right
side of the keyboard.
DISTRIBUTOR:
A change from slow to high speed distributor was made July 21, 1921 on Intertype No. 4086.
The slow speed assembler was standardized Aprll14, 1930 on Intertype No. 10675 and up.
A new style removable banking bar was adopted in JUly 1931 on Serial Nos. 11175, 11201, 112179 11219, 11221, 11228 to 11242, 11251 and up.
KEYBOARD:
90-key keyboard.
Note: When equipped with side magazines these models are known as ASM, BSM, and CSM.
Selection of matrices from the side magazine is controlled from an auxiliary keyboard located adjacent
to the right side of the main keyboard, in a position to prevent installation of the Teletypesetter
Operating Unit.
Accordingly, Models ASM, BSM and CSM are not adaptable to Teletypesetter control.
