The Ribbon Cartridge
The Ribbon Cartridge contains the inked ribbon which is inserted between the print head and the
paper. The impact of the print head needles on the ribbon applies the ink to the paper.
Your Digital LA400 MultiPrinter can use either a black ribbon or a color ribbon, if the color
mechanism is installed (see section "Preparing for Color Printing" in Appendix A "Supplies and
Options"). The black ribbon cartridge life is 15 million characters.
