ABSTRACT:
A ribbon drive device comprising a drive roller cooperating with a floating-type idler ring or roller pivoting and rotating about a support post to provide a nip therebetween through which the ribbon is moved upon rotation of the drive roller. The ribbon passes around the floating-type idler ring, through the nip and around the drive roller. The force on and the tension in the ribbon pulls and pivots the floating idler ring into a wedging position between the support post and the cooperating portion of the drive roller, with the ribbon pinched therebetween.
