How do you replace the white ribbon?

Hi--

Today I got an error message that my blue ink cartridge was inserted incorrectly. I noticed that the white ribbon on the side of the cartridge compartment was twisted, so I tried to untangle it. In the process, I ended up pulling it out of wherever it came from on the back of the cartridge compartment, and now my printer thinks this is a paper jam. Is this fixable and if so, how do I fix it?

Thanks!

Thanks so much! I'm not sure if I'll do this and try to fix it, or just replace the printer. Though I think if I had been more patient with the problem, cleaning a print head would have been the right solution. Thanks for your help Mayer!

Good afternoon, I have the exact same problem as this and need to find the cable insertion point, however the video from the above answer now does not work. Can anyone help please?
