PURPOSE: A vibration isolating attachment system is provided to increase a print quality by isolating a carriage from multi-directional vibrations. CONSTITUTION: An inkjet printing mechanism includes a vibration isolating attachment system(90) for securing a drive belt(78) to an inkjet printer head carriage for increasing print quality by isolating the carriage from multi-directional vibrations generated by a carriage drive motor while propelling the carriage during printing. The vibration isolating member(95) is of a resilient material having a first end(96) coupled to a drive mechanism interface member(80) which is joined to the belt(78), a second end(98) coupled to a carriage interface member(70) supported by the carriage, and a body section(100) between the first end(96) and the second end(98). Two or more vibration isolating members(95) may be used, with a preferred shape being an I-shaped cross section.
