The print wheel is provided with attaching members for engaging a portion of the print wheel retainer while being supported by the print wheel stop for detachably connecting the print wheel thereto and for permitting detachment of the print wheel therefrom when the print wheel retainer is arranged by the biasing means into the detaching position. Further in accordance with the present invention there is provided a carriage assembly adapted for tilting the print wheel to facilitate replacement and/or removal thereof wherein the carriage assembly is provided with a bias plate. The bias plate is adapted to return the carriage assembly to its operating position after being tilted away therefrom upon initial operation of the printing device.
