I hate this ribbon in printer ink and toner

This ribbon is terrible. I just switched the ribbon in my Corona 4 to this universal ribbon. I just rewound it to the original gear. The problem is the ink/ribbon itself. Instead of making a clear impression, my typed letters felt "outlined" like ink being squeezed out from under the keys. It leaves a lot of ink all over the place and my typewriter and letters are a mess :(

Pros
  • Glitter
Cons
  • Some problems

Fits Remington Rand Deluxe Model 5

Perfect fit for my Remington Rand Deluxe Model 5, circa 1941. I simply unwound the ribbon from the plastic spool and manually wound it onto the metal spool in the typewriter. Works perfectly! The ink is dark and does not run. The red ink is alive. I plan to buy additional material to keep them because I fear that one day the world will stop making typewriter ribbons!

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • sad packaging

The letters are not dark to me

Restored an old manual typewriter from my mother's house. We thought it would be a classic. but I also wanted it to work! So I bought new tapes. I expected good dark letters. I actually have to tap the keys to get medium dark letters. I don't know if it's my problem, a typewriter problem, or a ribbon problem. Just that I would be unhappy if I will say that the seller has responded.

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Lots of things

Powered by a .49 Remington with some manipulation

Just got my grandmother's 1949 Remington Rand, still working, with dry tape. I remember using it for school reports as a kid before we had our first Apple computer with a black and green screen. Now that I'm a writer I feel like having this in my life again is a dream. I took a chance with this generic replacement hoping it would work. Out of the box it obviously didn't slip into the coils. The universal spool has a star shaped piece that should expand to fit your typewriter's slot, but mineโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Crossing my fingers
Cons
  • Making me nervous

The best tape! in printer ink & toner

Dark and beautiful ink, very easy to apply. I had issues with my typewriter's stock bobbins, but they fit and work perfectly. The fonts are darker and bolder than any other volume I've had. Great monetary value. I will definitely be buying more for my other typewriters.

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • No color needed
