ABSTRACT:
A translatable information transfer device, such as ink jet printhead, is stepwise advanced by a mechanism consisting of a lead screw axially spring biased at one end, cam surface provided at the other end of the lead screw, fixed cam follower which engages the cam surface, and a carrier for the information transfer device mounted on the lead screw with cooperating internal threads. Rotation of the lead screw does not advance the carrier having the information transfer device until after one complete revolution of the lead screw, whereupon the cam surface and cam follower permit the information transfer device to axially advance a predetermined distance, such as, for example, one printing swath.
