ABSTRACT:
A cylindrical ribbon engaging device is rotated about an axis of rotation substantially parallel to the direction of ribbon flow to positively exert lateral forces to an elongated substantial continuum of the marginal edge portion of the ribbon. Provisions are made to maximize lateral forces while minimizing longitudinal forces.
