The Standard Electrical Dictionary

  1. Telegraph, Printing

    Various telegraphs have been invented for printing in the ordinary alphabet the messages at the receiving end of the line. Representative instruments of this class are used for transmitting different market and stock reports to business offices from the exchanges. The type faces are carried on the periphery of a printing wheel, which is rotated like the hand of a dial telegraph, and against whose face a paper riband is pressed whenever the proper letter comes opposite to it. As each letter is printed the paper moves forward the space of one letter. Spacing between words is also provided for. In the recent instruments two lines of letters are printed on the paper one above the other. In England, and on the continent of Europe, printing instruments have received considerable use for ordinary telegraphic work. Hughes' type printer and Wheatstone's ABC telegraph meet with extensive use there for ordinary transmission.
