  • Patent number: 4884904
    Abstract: A thermal printhead fixed to a pivotal supporting frame is held in operative printing contact with a web of printing medium backed by a platen roller under the bias of a spring device engageable with the pivotal supporting frame for the printhead. The spring device is operatively located relative to the platen roller so that the spring bias exerted establishes proper frictional feeding engagement between the web and the roller which is power driven.
