Abstract of the Disclosure A multicolour inked ribbon cartridge for an impact serial printer has a body housing a ribbon, and two spaced arms protruding from the body and supporting a portion of the ribbon for interposition between a printing head and a printing medium along the whole length of a platen. The cartridge body is supported for pivotal movement in the printer frame about an axis parallel to the platen, so that different colour bands on the ribbon can be moved between the printing head and the printing medium by pivotal movement of the cartridge. Such movement may be achieved by a motor driven cam acting on the cartridge body. A cord stretched between the arms of the cartridge acts as a guide for a ribbon positioning and guiding element, the latter being coupled to the cord so that it may move freely transversely of the cord but moves with the cord to reflect tilting of the cartridge, and being coupled to the printing head so that it moves transversely with the latter, but can move freely in a perpendicular direction.
