What is the ribbon life?

It just depends on how often you use your calculator. I am a bookkeeper and run a business where I use it every day. Probably every other month I change it. However my trick is if I do not need a tape with what I am adding, I put the lever on None Print. That saves a lot of adding machine tape as well as ribbon. I hope this helps

It depends how much you use your calculator. As far as I know it's still working well and we ordered it a while ago.

I've used one of the ribbons for four months, and it's starting to get towards replacing, but still hanging in there. I am a CPA, so I'm obviously a heavy user. There is nothing wrong with these ribbons.

That's hard to answer since everyone's use is different. When I change it, it's usually because the red has gotten too light to read, but the black is still reasonably dark. But that seems to be true of other brands too. Maybe I just have too many negative entries.

It should fit fine; most ribbons fit most portables. The Royal Standards take a larger spool, especially designed for them.

Yes, it has slots for ribbons. I put two spools of the small ribbon in each space. I double up my usage and it works great.

No ribbon location is different. Also for backlit keyboard they require a special port that supports back lighting.

The ribbon is a half inch tall 1/4 black and 1/4red make sure you re wrap it on your personal reels because the ones it comes with don't fit

I bought my ribbon October of last year and have only used one since that time. So it depends how often you use your calculator. I only use mine maybe twice weekly and the ribbon is like new! I truly believe this is a very good product and for the price, you got a bargain.

I can't say for sure, but I use my calculator daily and I print, so that uses up the ink quickly. If you don't mind a not so sharp printed tape, I'd guess the ribbon is good for 3-4 months.....but I know for a fact I've had ribbons in my calculator for over a year because I was too lazy to find a place that sells these ribbons.

Do you think the original is what they now call Ribbon Edge SATIN? The original was my wedding pattern in 1987, and I'd love some extra pieces, but I don't know what it's called now.

Hi Samantha and yes the item I purchased nearly a year ago did indeed have the embossed ribbon on the front bottom right corner.It does not exactly "jump out" at you but there none the less.Hope that helps.Regards, Gavin

There is a metal loop that secures the cork. You can see it in the picture a bit; it's what the ribbon is tied to. That secures it very well and it can sometimes be difficult to release the cork.

I am an accountant, and use the adding machine constantly. I get about 4/6 months out of a ribbon.

Yes Tina....the ribbon I purchased is fabric. Personally, I prefer the film ribbon, but apparently all that is available now is the fabric.

It is the same size, but completely different touch screen. If the ribbon is not hardwired to the touch screen, then it can be reused. Here is one link to what you need to be looking for: LCD display Screen Digitizer For Asus MeMO Pad FHD 10 ME302 ME302C ME302KL

If you are referring to the ribbon from FJA Products, I installed it on my Sharp model CS2182 and it is working okay.

Yes, it came with ribbon and correcting ribbon installed. I did buy extra ribbon & correct tape also, though. Never know when I will run out of ribbon. With my organization yearly dues flowing in I can't be without it. I can't use a computer for the dues cards.

Buy the 3ft. As it happens, the ribbon is actually 6ft on the "3ft ribbon" too but its tied to the wand in the middle to shorten it. You can always untie and make longer. I've done it to several of our ribbons.

I don't know, but I would highly recommend writing to the seller (FJA Products). They were very helpful. Not only could they tell me what ribbon I needed, but they also explained how to install it.
