PRINTER RIBBONS FOR TANDY PRINTERS
More well-known for its computers and monitors, Tandy Computer also manufactured a variety of dot matrix and daisy wheel printers in the past. It is still possible to buy a replacement ribbon, although it is less expensive and easier to find them for some models than others.

The web site scantracker.com offers ribbon replacements for a variety of Tandy printer models, including many from the DMP-series. Such ribbons can occasionally be found on eBay.com, but there is usually not a great variety available. Oldfaithfulcomputer.com has ribbons for many DMP, LP, and other printers. Another web site, Choiceprinters.com sells a box of six DMP-302 replacement ribbons for $22.74 (as of 09/26/07). Microwiz.com offers ribbon replacements for several DMP and two LP series printers. Surplus Electronics Market also sells one type of Tandy ribbon.

If you aren't sure what type of ribbon your printer requires or need help installing it, refer to the Tandy Computer support documents which can be found here; scroll down near the end of the page.
