The ribbon may not be fully seated on the ribbon deck. The blue latch has to hol it in place.

    Have removed and replaced, ribbon and correction tape, taken them apart, put them back together, replaced them in typewriter - several times. They all seem to fit together properly and I have changed the tapes many times before without a problem. Am wondering if correction tape holder is too long on the side pieces and maybe I could scrape a bit of it off to make the side pieces that fit against the ribbon container shorter.

    I already checked out that option, several times. But thanks for the suggestions.

How do I change the size/font of the letters? Bold and underline too?

To change font and pitch, you need to buy a different printwheel. machines came with a prestige elite 12 printwheel. Prestige elite has small letters and 12 puts 12 charactors per inch. Letter gothic is larger size letters. Google search for ibm wheelwriter printwheel, also called a daisy wheel.
