Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1080931A2] A universal ink ribbon core (10) has three notches (20a,20b,20c) spaced with 90 DEG intervals between the first and second notches (20a,20b) and between the second and third notches (20b,20c). In an alternate embodiment, a fourth notch (20d) is provided spaced at an interval of 150 DEG from either the first notch (20a) or the third notch (20c). The notches at one end of a core are formed at angular positions which are the same as the angular positions of the notches at the other end. An ink ribbon core of the invention may be installed in almost all types of printers. <IMAGE>
