Abstract
This invention relates to a linearly adjustable support mechanism in general, and more specifically to an apertured adjustment disc which provides a plurality of incremental linear, vertical adjustments, with no horizontal component, to raise and lower a supported member. This device has particular significance in a printing environment to align an ink or toner applicator member, such as a magnetic ink brush, with respect to a recording head or recording medium to insure that the magnetic brush will be parallel to the surface of the recording head or recording medium, to prevent the occurrence of a print intensity gradient in one instance or apply a uniform coating to the recording member in the other instance.
