[GreenKeys] Model 43 ink ribbon used or other wise

My 43 came with a dried-out ribbon cartridge. I bought a box of new ones 
but they would never advance the ribbon properly.

Turns out that they made them with the ribbon loop too long, so the 
spring-loaded tensioner ran out of range. I let the company know and 
they made me one with the correct length. That worked... but now is 
dried out again from the very infrequent use. I tried drilling a hole in 
the case and applying ink to the foam roller, with limited success.

Search the archives for my post, it was several years ago.
