The output from your impact printer is looking very faded. Which of these would be the best way to correct this problem?
A) Replace the toner cartridge
B) Replace the print head
C) Replace the ribbon cartridge
D) Replace the ink cartridge
E) Turn up the lights and get a magnifying glass
The answer: C) Replace the ribbon cartridge
Impact printers use tiny pins to press against a piece of paper, including a ribbon in the middle that transfers the ink to the page. As the ribbon gets used, the output becomes faded. Replacing the modular ribbon cartridge will provide a new source of ink for the output.
