How do you change the ribbon? We press on the metal tab and the cartridge only slides a little bit and not out.

You can't change the ribbon in the cartridge. You must purchase a new cartridge. The cartridge itself just slides into place with a little push. Maybe something on your typewriter is bent.

You press on the tab that is below the bigger part of the ribbon. It only comes out a little bit than you grab it and pull it out.

When empty just unscrew silver from black. Then pull the converter strait out. Center the cartridge and push in hard to get the cartridge to seat.

All you do is pull down (forward and down) on the front and then just pull the cartridge out (a little upward and out). To put in the new cartridge just push in the cartridge with a little downward motion until it clicks in place and close the door.

Don't really know but suggest that you check that the ribbon is working correctly and not jammed.

unscrew the body of the pen; take the whole nib assembly out. Then pull the converter straight out. It will require some force, but the converter will slide out. You can then put the cartridge in its place.

Feel at the bottom of the left hand butt cover and lift the cover off. Unscrew the winged bolt at the bottom quite a long way. Then the cartridge should just fall out. If it doesn't, put two fingers at the top of the cartridge and just pull it downwards. Put the new cartridge in the same way round and then screw up the winged bolt until a little resistance is felt. Then screw it quickly up to a fairly heavy finger tightness. Clip on the butt cover and you then are ready to kill a few tin cans. Good luck.

Yes, I did get a couple of different stylus needles for mine, but really the one that came with the unit sounds the best. The other work, but you have to trim the plastic of the cartridge and adjust, but I managed to get both to snap in. It just snaps in, and these cartridges are flexible plastic, not completely rigid plastic. So if you have any trouble getting it to fit, it may have to be looked at carefully and then trim a tab or heat melt a tab to fit. But the original one is great. I have a 78rpm needle and the smaller 33rpm needle, but the original sounds great on both. Great is a relative term here, but it plays all the records and it's portable.

Sorry, I have not had an issue changing toner cartridges, so I'm not sure how to fix it. Did you pull all of the protective plastic tabs off of the cartridges? Try tipping the cartridge back and forth a few times to loosen the toner. One time my printer kept saying the paper was out when it wasn't. I turned off both the printer and the computer and rebooted them. That seemed to fix my problem. Sorry I can't be of more help.

If you are talking about the actual ink cartridge (not how to get to it), there is a little tab (arch...kind of like a rainbow shape) on top of the ink cartridge that is currently in your printer that you can stick your finger under and flip up. There will be two of them (a pink one on the left for color & a black one on the right for black). Once you flip the tab up, the empty ink cartridge will be slanted so you can take it out and replace with the new one. Position the new ink cartridge in the same position as the old one was in (slanted position) and push down the tab (ink cartridge will pop into position on its own). Good Luck.

Do not force it. There is a small loop on the back of the power ribbon that gets caught on the medal frame as it gets fed through. If you force it it will rip and the digitizer will not work. Remove it check for damage and start over. Make sure both ribbons slide al the way through before re assembling

It could be that the cartridge is not pushed down all the way. If that doesn't work, try making sure there is nothing stuck in or on the track the cartridges slide on. If all else fails, check your power cord connections, and make sure your cartridge door is down all the way.

If you don't have the instruction book, observe the old ribbon. Take off one portion of the old one at a time, and replace it with the new one. You may be able to Google the instructions.

There is a small release button in the middle on the back of the razor holder head, and you need to squeeze that and push it down and forward to release the cartridge.

I found a small magnet that will just stay on the top of the Leland cartridge and make it fit and work. The magnet was a thin one that came off the back of something (fridge magnet, maybe?).

I had the same problem the other day and I found it was my fault because I had pushed the cartridge in too far. When I pushed in into the slot very lightly just until it clicked it worked fine. The original cartridges were harder to push in than the compatibles...no problem since and they print fine.

We actually had to cut ours out. We had to cut the ribbon and then put in a new ribbon. Unfortunately, after that episode it was just a short time till we had to replace the complete unit. Seems there is something in there that when it goes bad or breaks, it jams the ribbon. When you finally get the ribbon out, look to see if any additional plastic comes with it.
