A high speed printer utilizes a multi-wire print head for printing graphic symbols on a recording stratum by urging selected wire printing elements against a ribbon interposed between the print head and recording stratum. The print head includes a potted body formed with guideways, each guideway adapted to slidably receive one of the wire printing elements. Free flight movement of each wire printing element and distributed frictional contact of each wire within its associated guideway is provided by disposing each guideway in a curved path defined by the elastic curve of the wire printing element received therein.
