Not Sure Which Ribbon Your Typewriter Needs?

We are always here to help! If you are unsure whether your machine requires a Group 9 (GR9) ribbon, simply contact our restoration workshop. Send us your typewriter model name and a photo of the ribbon spool area, and our experts will confirm the exact fit for you.


⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTE FOR US & CANADIAN BUYERS (Olympia Typewriters):
These Group 9 (GR9) spools are the correct ribbon for Olympia typewriters specifically manufactured for the North American (US & Canada) market!

How to tell if your Olympia requires Group 9 (GR9) spools?
1. Check the Keyboard: Look at your key layout—North American market machines feature an American QWERTY keyboard with a dedicated dollar sign ($) key positioned above the 4 key.
2. Check the Back Panel: Inspect the rear metal plate or badge on the back panel for a US or Canadian distributor/supplier label.

If your Olympia has a $ key above the 4 key or a North American distributor badge on the rear plate, these Group 9 (GR9) ribbons are the exact spools your typewriter needs.
