[GreenKeys] Two color ribbon?

[Jack]

The tow-color mod kit used solenoids to lift 
the ribbon on each side. I put one
on a Model 28 years ago. Worked fine.

I agree there are mods to this printer. Not sure what the cbl in the 
back is for or the extra wires out of the contact box.
Would be interesting to see the mod kit that would allow the ribbon
mech 
to be raised high enough to print in red.
Never know - - you can do some fancy things with this gear!
