Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0345422A2] In a guiding device for a printer or a recording apparatus having a print abutment (14), a print carriage (12), which is movable along the print abutment (14), and at least one guide belt (30), which is attached by one end to the print carriage (12), can be wound by the other end onto a winding reel (28) and is arranged parallel to the print abutment (14), the winding reel (28) being arranged in the end region of the movement path of the print carriage (12), it is proposed for better guiding of the recording medium in the printing region that the winding reel (28) is adjustable via a support (26), mounted adjustably on the housing (10) of the apparatus, between the operating position situated in the end region of the movement path and a non-operational position retracted from the movement path, and that interacting control surfaces (22, 34) are formed on the print carriage (12), on the one hand, and on the winding reel support (26), on the other hand, which control surfaces cause an adjustment into the non-operational position when the print carriage (12) is moved into the end region and an adjustment into the operating position when it is moved out of the end region. <IMAGE>
