Title: tape ribbon is now on outside of the dat tape
Post by: svenkid on October 16, 2005, 04:05:04 PM

 :-\

I was tapping a show las nite, I pulled the tape out of my M1, and I put it on the table, and the ribbon is hanging out. I recall this happening along time ago with muy buddys dat, but I cant recall what he did to fix it.

Any help appreciated!

Pop open the tape protector flap, and manually roll the tape back into the casing with your fingertip or a small screwdriver. 

Is this what you were asking about?  Seems kinda easy to me  ???
