Can you tell me how many characters/pages I can write with a ribbon (let's say a 'normal' ribbon). I use an Olivetti leterra 32 and I read that one ribbon corresponded to 5.000 characters, which seems to be rather low. I expected something like at least fifty pages.
Thank you so much for posting this video. Thanks to you I figured out why my ribbon kept slipping out of the carrier and now I can write letters again. Much obliged.
I am going to buy a Brother Acord 10 and i was wondering were I can get a ribbon?

Are your hands shaking violently or is that just a frame rate thing?

the trick is to press shift lock, then thread the ribbon in letter guide.
then press 2 keys to stick the hammers on the ribbon holding it in place

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I was going INSANE trying to thread my electric typewriter and beginning to understand why so many writers DRINK!
HERE is what I love to use electric typewriters for -- FILE FOLDER LABELS. Also great for typing LETTERS on small cards. THANKS AGAIN!
