I use SCM SC20 ribbons. Walmart on line has 6 for 29.95.  These have 
rivets and print well.

Beware, some cheap universal ones I bought from Amazon were dry and some 
have no rivets. If you don't mind getting fingers dirty you can buy and 
crimp on your own rivets and swap spools for metal ones if you don't 
like plastic.
