Abstract
An ink ribbon device having a holder for a ribbon spool which is pivotably mounted on a frame which supports the spool drive device. When the spool is inserted into the holder, a slide on the holder top is operated against the force of a spring, and engages guide slots. The holder then automatically is guided to the operating position and the spool engages the drive device. Upon movement of the holder for unloading, the spool is ejected by the spring.
