Does this use the ribbon spools

No, it does not use an ink ribbon mounted on 2 spools like that used in old manual typewriters and adding machines. It uses a modern mini-cartridge unit that mounts on the print head. See: Nu-Kote NR42

I havent seen any spools,....however they use a simple and small multi-color (red) & (black) ink cartridge that fits overhead the print gizmo....

Yes from what I seen. When I use ribbon I get wallsaver removable mounting tape or 2 sided scotch tape.

Hi there. I bought these for a smith corona corsair deluxe, and no they did not fit directly. I was able to transfer the ribbon from these spools onto a pair of original spools that I had. I am unsure where you'd find spools that fit directly, most that are available on amazon seem to be too big for the smith corona corsair deluxe.

no, with a little backing line it will take about 1/2 of a spool, worth the money, enjoyed it this year

I bought this for my wife. She has small spools on them. I would have to measure tomorrow and make sure for you.

Yes it can be used on your serger, without the spool holders. No, I didn't use another adapter.

Everything I read said it would, but my little typewriter is so old that the lower part of the spools cannot be removed. I ordered this because it was the closest I could get size wise. I figured for the price it was worth a try. I had to remove the ribbon from the spools and wind it on to the original spools to use it. I hope this helps.

I did not use any ribbon but i found on the sheers that after glue dried i could lightly iron and smooth my seams. I didn't have any puckering.

No, not even any older model Royal. The capstans don't grip the spools on mine so I unwound the old ribbon from the spools I had and rewound them with the new ribbon. Not a perfect solution and quite time consuming but it was a workable last resort to keep typing.

I believe you can spool any preferred floss onto the reel, however, I have used these for years and have yet to run out of spool before the plastic crank mechanism breaks down.

I use Robison Anton spool thread. It will not fit this box as the base of the spool is too large. Don't know about other brands of large spools. Each slot would hold more than one of the small spools

I think it will work. It's a large spool and not a cone. I really like this thread. I have all collections.

If you mean the ribbon cable that connects it to the Main Board then yes it does.

I don't know. If you download the instruction manual for that model it will tell you which spools work.

No. Just the ribbon. Your best bet would be to improvise with a hot glue gun or something to that effect

Yes, that is the model I have. The spools do unwind when you install them. My current one had to be untangled several times before it got into a rhythm. They work so I am about to order again.

I don't know, I have an old manual. I read that this Remington ribbon would fit. There was only one size. The bottom of the spool could not be removed and replaced on this old typewriter, so I bought this ribbon and removed it from the spools and hand rolled the ribbon on the original spools. It's messy to handle, but it works and that little typewriter is working again.
