How to Replace a Typewriter Ribbon Using the Original Spools

[lindakoll]

I really wanted to thank you for showing us how to replace the ribbon especially at old typewriters! 👏🏻😊
Without you I wouldn't have any idea how to do this! I needed a long time replacing this but it worked out because of your good explanation! :)
Thank you so much 🤗

OH MY GOODNESS! You saved me! I got a typewriter and I needed to replace the ribbon but there was no ribbon plus spool that would fit! I have been looking for hours and then decided to check out youtube! I am so thankful that I found this video! It saved me a lot of hours of looking for spools!

How do I change my ribbon on my vintage Remington 16 typewriter?
The ribbon spools are hidden. Do I have to take it apart?

Why are my ribbons spools hidden? How do I get at them?

Pardon my ignorance, but you don’t have to tie a knot at the end of the ribbon? Since it doesn’t have an eyelet?

I have an old typewriter but it hasn't got a hook to put ribbon onto

I'm new to typewriters. How long the new ribbon will last? Any idea how many pages before it dries? Thanks
