Working Principles
The ribbon rewind unit is driven by the same motor that drives the platen
roller in the print unit via a belt that engages the timing belt pulley. The
torque spring allows the stepper motor to drive the rewind hub rotate
counter-clockwise only. When the media is fed back, the ribbon will not
move.
The torque spring arrangement automatically compensates for the gradu-
ally increasing diameter of the used ribbon on the rewind hub, so the
ribbon will always be fed at the same speed as the media.
