Compatible Teletype ribbon pack

This six-pack of black ink ribbons replaces Teletype part 181129 for models 118KSR, 88, 88ASR and 88TTY. It also fits Telex 311, Towa TA-246 and TransAmerica 2000 point-of-sale printers. Each ribbon is built to OEM specifications for sharp, professional output on receipts and invoices.

Thermals noise power

Ribbon printing uses impact technology, so the cartridges add no measurable heat or electrical load to the host device. Operation is silent beyond the normal mechanical sound of the print head striking the ribbon. No external power supply or cooling consideration is required.

Sustained load behaviour

High ink retention keeps print density consistent across long runs of receipts or invoices without fading. The ribbons are manufactured in ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified facilities for 110V machines sold in the U.S. A 30-day manufacturer warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship.

Questions about this item

How do I install the SuppliesMax 181129 ribbon in a Teletype 88ASR and what step is often missed?

Open the printer cover, remove the spent cartridge, insert the new ribbon so the feed knob engages the drive gear, then close the cover; the step often missed is seating the ribbon fully under the print-head guide so it advances evenly.

What maintenance will the Teletype 88TTY ribbon need during its life?

No routine maintenance is required; simply replace the cartridge when print density fades — excellent ink retention keeps output consistent until the ribbon is exhausted.

What limit appears first during continuous high-volume printing on a Teletype 118KSR?

The ribbon ink supply depletes first; each cartridge yields sharp output until the ink is spent, then a fresh ribbon from the six-pack restores full density.
