Abstract
There is described a web feed mechanism having a first drive means that engages the web and urges the web longitudinally in one direction. A second drive means engages the web at a position spaced from the first drive means and upstream thereof, the second drive means including a stepper motor which primarily acts as a brake to lock the web against movement by the first drive means. To advance the web, the stepper motor is stepped through a predetermined number of incremental steps, allowing the web to be advanced a fixed distance by the first drive means.
