Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a small-sized and relatively inexpensive ribbon cartridge with a tank long life, by providing an ink tank only to the monochromatic ink ribbon high in use frequency among a plurality of monochromatic ink ribbons. CONSTITUTION:A ribbon cartridge 10 has a black ink ribbon 12 and a red ink ribbon 13. The black ink ribbon 12 and the red ink ribbon 13 are stored in the ribbon cartridge 10 so as to hold a partition plate 11 therebetween. When the use frequency of the black ink ribbon 12 is higher than that of the red ink ribbon 13, a black ink tank 16 is provided to the side of the ink ribbon 12. Ribbon feed rollers 14, 15 are driven by the ribbon feed mechanism provided to an impact type printing apparatus and the ribbon feed roller 14 applies the black ink from the ink tank 16 impregnated with black ink to the black ink ribbon while feeding both ink ribbons 12, 13.
