typewriter ribbons Miscellaneous Typewriter and Printer Ribbons

We have literally thousands of these spool-to-spool, re-inked ribbons. They fit many brands of older typewriters and printers (mainly some of the original dot-matrix printers).

These are hard to sell via the Internet and email because of the usually minor differences in the spools the ribbons are wound on. Some have a half dozen holes around a central core, others may have two or three, and some have none. Some have little clips or pins. The central hole is frequently different sizes, and sometimes round, sometimes square.

typewriter ribbons The easiest way to determine whether I have a ribbon that will fit your machine is for you to either send me a scan of one of your spools (contact me first, and be able to use "jpg"—JPEG, but not over 50Kb in size), or to mail me one to compare with what I have in stock. Second photo is the back of one of the boxes with the name of the company, now defunct for many years, who re-inked them.

Although these are old, each ribbon is wrapped in celophane, inserted into an individual box, and twelve boxes packed in a larger box. We will need to do some negotiation on S&H after you send me a spool to determine S&H on the ribbon or ribbons you want, and the distance to your Zip code.

However, if you love your old machine, you know it is almost impossible to get any kind of ribbon for it.
