Compatible Time Clock Ribbons

SuppliesMax Simplex 1603-9806B black printer ribbons replace OEM part numbers 1603-9806B, 021000B, 021010B and S-BRAVO-BL. The six-pack suits businesses that run Simplex 50, 100, 125, Bravo, Bravo Plus or Combo clocks and Royal 100, 200, 300 or Time Master 100, 200, 300 models. Each ribbon is built to match original specifications for sharp, professional output on receipts and invoices.

Reliable Ink Retention

Premium materials deliver consistent ink flow so characters stay legible during high-volume printing. Excellent ink retention reduces the frequency of ribbon changes and keeps downtime low in busy payroll environments. Manufacturing follows ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 standards using new and recycled components. The product carries a 30-day manufacturer warranty.

Upgrade From Worn OEM Ribbons

Direct replacement for depleted Simplex or Royal cartridges restores print density without modifying the machine. The jump is worth it when faded output slows verification of time cards or when frequent swaps interrupt shift changes. Not suited for printers outside the listed Simplex and Royal series or for colour printing requirements.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 1603-9806B ribbon into a Simplex 100 time clock, and what step is often missed?

Open the printer cover, remove the old cartridge, insert the new ribbon so the spool pins engage the drive gears, then advance the ribbon manually one full turn before closing the cover — skipping the manual advance causes the first prints to be faint.

What maintenance will the 6-pack of black ribbons require over time?

Each ribbon is a disposable cartridge; when print density fades on receipts or invoices, replace the entire cartridge — no separate ink refills or printhead cleaning are needed for these time-clock models.

What limit appears first during continuous high-volume printing on a Simplex 125?

The ribbon ink depletes after extended runs, so the practical limit is the ribbon’s ink capacity — once output becomes light, swap in a fresh cartridge from the pack to restore sharp output.
