Abstract
A print head assembly for use in a printer which includes a platen roller positioned adjacent a paper path and a first positioning member associated with the platen roller includes a print head and a support for the print head. The support is positioned for sliding along a longitudinal member. A second positioning member extends from one of the print head and the support for movement therewith. The second positioning member slides into contact with the first positioning member to position the print head relative to the platen roller. A cam follower arrangement urges the print head into engagement with the platen roller.
