Abstract
A selectable drive printing device includes a feedshaft to selectively drive a print drive system and a scan drive system, and a shifter to selectively shift a drive selector assembly of the selectable drive printing device between a scanning system drive position wherein the scan drive system is driven and a printing system drive position wherein the print drive system is driven. The shifter is coaxially and rotatably coupled around the feedshaft. Further, the shifter selectively drives the print drive system and the scan drive system based on an angular position of the shifter about the feedshaft.
