ABSTRACT:
A lifting and lowering mechanism for an ink ribbon and a correction tape of a typewriter includes a stepper motor which drives both a ribbon lift arm and a tape lift arm. First and second gear wheels, partially geared at predetermined portions and pivoted along the stepper motor shaft, engage with a gear wheel equipped at the ribbon lift arm and the tape lift arm respectively. The ink ribbon and the correction tape are lifted separately and selectively by changing the direction of the stepper motor rotation.
