Abstract
An electromagnetic drive mechanism for a pin in a matrix printing head has a first magnet with an articulated armature, wherein a free end of the armature acts on the pin and can be returned to a disengaaged position by a recovery mechanism. The recovery mechanism comprises another articulated-armature magnet with an armature identical with that of the first magnet but with a yoke mounted on a side of the armature that faces away from a yoke of the first magnet.
