Summary: Printer ribbons lube


I read somewhere that wd-40 will revive a weak (light) ribbon.
It does work and it should lube the head. I have had the same ribbon
for almost a year in an Oki 192 and it has been revived twice. 
The print quality is not very good but it doesn't matter because I
have a new ribbon I use when print quality is important.
