Sharp CE-122 printer motor running too fast?

[Dave Britten]

I put a few minuscule drops of distilled water onto the ink roller to rejuvenate it a bit, and it's a slight improvement.

I found some ERC-05s on Amazon, and ordered one for only $6. We'll see how it is when it gets here in a week or so.

I wonder if I can re-ink the rollers in the other two I have that are almost totally dried out. One was still new in the Radio Shack packaging, so I would think the ribbon itself is still okay.
