Thanks   Lester for verifying that and  to others  for  all the  great  
hints on ribbons and where to get them.
 
 
I guess the  final question  is...
there are  the  inking levels  they can be ordered in 
from the  one source  mentioned in this discussion...
 
TO MATCH UPI/AP WHAT INKING LEVEL WOUD BE CLOSE?
 
again,  thanks !    Ed#

I recommend you  don't ask for GREEN!

When I was in High School, I used green ink  pens.

I thought they were great!

By the time I finished the 12th  spool of green TTY ink,
I was ready to throw-up...

Blue - OK
Navy  Blue - GOOD
Purple - REAL GOOD (pretty much the standard)
Black -  EXCELLENT
Green - NO
Red - EVEN WORSE THAN  GREEN

Ugh!

Sick-serely,
K2EAA -  TONY
NNNN
