and C, B' respectively. 
This causes the Lever Ribbon Feeder Assy to move in the direction of arrow E, rotating round the Gear 
Reduction A shaft in the center, until the Gear Reduction B goes in with the Gear Reduction C. 
Since the Gear Reduction C and the ribbon feeder are always engage d, the ribbon feeder rotates in the

of arrow H, the Lever Ribbon Feeder Assy moves in the direction of arrow F, disengaging the Gear reduction 
B from the Gear Reduction C.

counterclockwise. 
Then the ribbon feed and ribbon hold rollers in the ribbon cassette, which are engaged with the ribbon feeder 
Assy, rotate and the ribbon is feed.
