Hello Friends, This is Richard Oehm from Oehm Electronics. Yes: some Optacon users still use the Smith Corona Coronamatic typewriters and the associated TSI typewriter lens modules with these typewriters. One of My Optacon customers has had excellent luck purchasing a wide variety of the Smith Corona Coronamatic typewriter ribbon cartridges from a small company in Dunkirk New York. The name of this outfit is Will's repair service. Their address is 5117 Fairlane ST. Dunkirk New York 14048. You can telephone them at (716) 366-1424. They have a wide variety of these Smith Corona Coronamatic ribbon cartridges in stock, including the very hard to find correction ribbon cartridges. They also repair the Smith Corona Coronamatic typewriters. This information is now approximately one year old, so if anyone on the list contacts these folks and acquires ribbon cartridges or has their typewriter repaired, please update this information about their stock of correction ribbon cartridges ETC. To My knowledge, the only replacement ribbon cartridge still manufactured for the Smith Corona Coronamatic typewriters is the standard black film ribbon cartridge. This means that the other types of Smith Corona Coronamatic ribbon cartridges available from Will's repair service are from their surplus inventory, and there must be a finite supply of these other ribbon cartridges. I hope some of you find this information useful. Take care, and Happy Holidays to all.
