Finding new ink ribbons

You do not need to use ink ribbons, just use Brother A4 thermal paper.

LTP to USB adaptors

I use the Belkin F5U002. 

Troubleshooting

If your printer in not connecting using a USB adaptor go to Printers & Scanners then click Manage, then Printer properties. Click on the Ports tab and check for other "Virtual printer port for USB" ports. E.G  USB001 or USB002. Sometimes if your plug in the adaptor to another USB port Windows will install it again and make a new virtual printer port. You can find out the correct USB port fore sure in device manager. Go to USB controllers and open USB printing support and look at the Location. It will show Port_#0001 or Port_#0002 and so on. The Port_#000x will be the virtual printer port number.
