ABSTRACT:
A snap-action fastener assembly is disclosed, which provides ease of assembly and disassembly of a print disc to and from a serial printer. The snap-action fastener assembly comprises a necked shaft connected to the serial printer, and a pair of flexing jaws connected to the print disc. When pressure is applied about the jaws, they are caused to widen so as to easily slip over the shaft. When the pressure is released, the jaws snap back to a locked position. When the jaws are positioned about the necked section of the shaft in a pressure released condition, the print disc will be securely locked upon the shaft.
