The OEM replacement catalog number is 26-1288 which I believe can be used on the DMP-106, too. I'm wondering if anyone has knows of a suitable replacement or a consistent source for dot matrix printer ribbons for "classic" printers. The ribbon itself looks to be in good condition so I guess I could re-ink it, in which case, what's the best ink for that? -snip- http://www.cfriends.com/ Computer friends, they still sell the macinker, a reinking tool for dot matrix ribbons. They sell ink, and also ribbon and a ribbon-welder to weld the loose ribbon together. They are also a good source for laser toner, etc...
