ABSTRACT:
A thermal printhead spring mount is provided, wherein a spring engages a printhead carrier at two points along the width of the carrier, the points being equidistant from the center of the carrier. A cam engages the center of the spring and selectively biases the spring against the carrier. The spring transfers equal force to the two points, creating a balanced carrier. By releasing cam force from the spring, through simple rotation, tension is relieved in the spring.
