ABSTRACT:
A mechanism for feeding record media from a supply roll through a printing station. The printing station includes printing means and a platen assembly operable for printing on the record media. A feed roller is supported by the platen assembly and is movable therewith in a direction to and from the printing means. A pressure roller is supported in opposed manner to said feed roller and the pressure roller is journaled in bearings in frame plates. The bearings include elongated slots therein for the shaft of the pressure roller to enable the pressure roller to move a predetermined distance into the path of the record media from the supply roll and to guide the record media along a path to avoid contact with the printing means.
