Hello I still have a problem with my ribbon, I notice my ribbon doesn’t slowly advanced while I’m typing, the ink just fade away unless I manually advance it, any thought? Tia 😬

Hello! It seems like the problem might be with the ribbon advance, check that the spools rotate whenever you firmly tap on the keys. If they don't rotate, check the assembly that the spools are sitting on, sometimes there can be issues with missing springs, dirt or rust preventing movement. Best, Alex
