摘要： An ink ribbon cassette has a box-shaped ribbon container for housing an endless ink ribbon and a ribbon protector positioned between a sheet of print paper and the ink ribbon exposed between ribbon guide arms. The ribbon protector is elongate in shape and has a pair of holes defined in the opposite ends thereof and a central hole. The ribbon protector is mounted in position by fitting the end holes thereof over projections on the ribbon guide arms. The ink ribbon cassette also has a pair of holders for preventing the mounted ribbon protector from being detached from the ribbon guide arms. During a printing operation, the ink ribbon is pressed against the sheet by a print head through the central hole in the ribbon protector.

摘要： Disclosed is a serial printer comprising a carriage loaded with a printing head and moved in the horizontal direction, wherein a motor is contained in the carriage, a pinion is attached to a rotor shaft of the motor, a rack engaged with this pinion is attached onto a guide rail for movably supporting the carriage and the carriage loaded with the printing head is moved along the rack by rotating the pinion engaged with the rack by rotation of the motor.In this serial printer, the power loss of the motor due to the presence of an intermediate power transmitting member indispensable for the conventional printer, such as a wire rope, a toothed belt or a screw shaft, can be eliminated, and occurrence of troubles due to stretching or deformation of this intermediate power transmitting member is prevented. Accordingly, the capacity of moving and positioning the printing head is increased. Furthermore, since the carriage is of the self-running type, it is possible to adopt an embodiment in which at least two carriages are mounted on one printer and they are independently moved to effect the delivery operation. Accordingly, the printing speed can be increased and multi-color printing can be performed.
