ABSTRACT:
The invention disclosed is a printing system particularly useful for printing languages having large number of characters such as Chinese. The printing system in one aspect comprises a packet of coaxially disposed printing elements, each having a generally flat edge, an axis of rotation proximate that edge, and at least one series of character faces disposed circumferentially relative to the axis of rotation. The printing elements are generally mutually aligned so that their flat edges are disposed adjacent to a print receiving means such as a platen and are axially translatable so that any selected printing element can be placed in a pre-print position. Each printing element is rotatable so that a selected character face on the printing element in pre-print position can be juxtaposed into a print position relative to the print receiving means for printing of the character.
