ABSTRACT:
A ribbon subcartridge having an endless ribbon folded and held therein, and a plate member with a slit portion through which the ribbon passes. The plate member also includes a holding portion for holding the plate member during placement of the ribbon within a ribbon guiding passage of a ribbon cartridge in which the ribbon subcartridge is placed. Once the ribbon is properly positioned in the ribbon guiding passage, the plate member is attached to the ribbon cartridge. The shape and thickness of the plate member is selected so that the plate member is able to pass through the ribbon guiding passage in the ribbon cartridge, further facilitating ribbon replacement. Thus, a ribbon may be replaced without staining the operator's hands or clothes.
