The TECHNICAL problem : I am repairing a not so old electric typewriter.
I need to replace what I call : a flexible printed circuit ( strip / ribbon / what's

"FFC"/"FPC" and "FFC/FPC connector" possibly. Are these
the sort of things you mean?

Maybe if there's a repair manual for the typewriter it would have the part/term listed
there? I'm not sure without picture and Phil sounds like he has a good technical term
but most flexible cables I've just heard called ribbon cables. But I'm probably
lumping all flat cables into the same category as a floppy drive/ide type cable.
