    RISO GR drums (and an SC5500 cable) wanted

    Hi, just joined...I posted a thread in the wrong category yesterday, woops!

    Anyways, I'm looking for legal/B4 GR drums (not wide).

    I'm also looking for an SC5500 cable.

    And lastly, I'm selling an SC-II cable for the SC7950.

    Thanks y'all!

          Edit 2: I was able to get a blue, green, and leaking black drum through Reddit, two blues and a red from the Risograph Facebook group, and a bright red drum through Facebook Marketplace! FB Marketplace doesn't have a search all feature, so I spent some time looking through different zip codes within a 100 mile radius...tedious, but it worked! I'm planning on converting the green to yellow, bright red to scarlet, one blue to orange, one blue to kelly green, and the red to fluo pink! I would have converted the green to sunflower and one of the blue drums to aqua, but i already purchased yellow and blue ink tubes before taking a closer look at all the colors. So those conversions are for the future, along with the leaking black to metallic gold (if I can ever find that ink)!

              RISO does not make a metallic gold for GR. Z & F type ink, yes. BUT you have to order a whole case, 10 tubes. Also the shelf life is only 1 year.

              Good luck.

                  There's a tab you can attach to Z and F type ink tubes that tricks GR machines into recognizing it as a compatible ink tube! And I've found two companies that offer a case of 2 metallic gold ink tubes, but both are overseas.
                  Also, is the shelf life for all RISO ink only a year, or just metallics? I should up my printing game if that's the case!
