Jason,
Is it cheaper to do it that way luckily I got 40 new ribbon cartrages
with my C-64 purchase.. Do they have screws or are they hot glued
together?
I have found that most vintage ribbons can be
replaced with new
ribbons for
new devices. Worst case you may find the right width but you'll have to
re-thread to fit the vintage spindle. Just have to match the width.
I recently bought new ribbons for Decwriter II and TI Omni 810
without any
problem.

I'm having this issue right now with a Panasonic printer. The black
ink ribbons are still a dime/dozen. The 4-color ribbons are NLA from
Panasonic and finding them is proving to get quite difficult.
I'd be more than happy to re-thread a cartridge, but where does one
find CMYK 1 inch fabric ribbon?
