Abstract
A driving rope for use with the printing head carriage of a word processor, a plotter or other compact equipment. The driving rope generally comprises a core rope and a thread formation of resin disposed thereon. Unlike a conventional timing belt, this driving rope is deformable for easy routing and yet assures a positive and accurate shift of the carriage.
