ABSTRACT:
In a printing device including rotatable character wheels having type characters on the surface thereof and a selection mechanism for selectively bringing a character to a printing position, a drive means is provided for moving the selection mechanism. Coupling between the drive means and the selection mechanism is effected by an electro-magnet, size and power requirements for the electro-magnet being reduced by the fact that the electro-magnet functions only as a coupling means and not as the drive means itself.
