ABSTRACT:
A method of respooling used typing ribbon of the type comprising an ink, a binder and a plastic substrate is disclosed wherein the substrate is stretched after the ribbon has been typed upon in a preferential direction to a degree such that the ribbon undergoes a preferential deformation whereby the ribbon may be more readily respooled prior to disposal. Preferably the stretching means comprises a profile shape formed as part of the ribbon guide system within a ribbon cartridge.
