Looks like their catalog stuff is not updated yet. 1930TEL looks like what I've
been getting, but I generally just email and ask for what I want. Any 1/2" ribbon
with reversing eyelets and at least one sprocket hole in the spool will work
on any 14/15/28 as far as I can tell. If you contact them by email you can
also select the various options like cotton vs nylon, and heavy vs normal inking,
as well as other colors.
I found that the heavy inked nylon ones produce satisfactory print on my M14
typing reperf, which not much else does. For a 15 or 28 it probably doesn't matter
though the heavy one will last longer.
