2.1.3
Tape Feed Mechanism
This mechanism consists of a DC motor, gear train and roller holder ASSY.
When you load a tape cassette and close the cassette cover, the platen and the thermal
head sandwich the tape inbetween and the platen gear becomes engaged with the gear
train, as described in Subsection 2.1.2.
As the DC motor rotates, the rotation is transmitted via the gear train to the platen gear.
Accordingly, the sandwiched tape will be advanced.
