  Anyone know what type of ribbon the KayPro Letter
Quality printer
 (daisywheel; Juki 6100) uses?  I have one without a ribbon or even a
 used ribbon cassette for comparrison.

 Is there a ribbon that is currently made that works with this
 printer?  If so, where can it be obtained? 
I don't know if you can still get them -- I expect you can -- but I can
tell you that the ribbon for a Juki 6100 is an IBM 82 compatible
multistrike or single-strike ribbon cassette, same as is used on an IBM
Selectric II.  I used to use multistrike carbon, but you could also get
multistrike fabric and single-strike carbon.  Fabric, however, tends to
clog the character petals after a while.

I no longer have a 6100 nor the user manual but I do have the technical
service manual.
