Just what I needed for my old typewriter. Very glad Staples still carries such items since they are no doubt in high demand.

Just In Time
We still use a typewriter. . .a lot! Our account cards are an important part of our practice and making them legible is a priority. We had used the last of our ribbons but Quill's replacement arrived just in time.

Hard to find product great service!
Trying to find typewriter ribbons is like trying to find a pay telephone! That’s why I was surprised and pleased that my local Staples was able to source the ribbons I needed at a reasonable price and get them in store so quickly. And with free shipping! Great job Staples!

Brother Ink Refill
Staples is a wonderful store for many reasons. Their inventory is amazing. Recently my ancient Brother typewriter/word processor ran out of ink. I was delighted when I went to Staples and found a refill ink cartridge—and voila!
