ABSTRACT:
A toothed drive belt for a printer or other device is provided at each end with a slotted clip or termination which is secured in place by engaging slots therein with teeth on the belt and by wrapping the termination around the end portion of the belt. The termination includes an aperture in a portion extending outwardly from the end portions of the belt. A tensioner for retaining the belt in operative relation to associated gears or other elements includes hooks which engage the apertures in the terminations. The terminations can be assembled on the belt ends by engaging the ends of the belts with termination portions of an article including both termination portions and an interconnecting portion, bending side portions and fingers of the termination portions around the end portions of the belt, and then removing the interconnecting portion.
