The printer has a frame (7), a movable carriage (1) on which can be plugged in at least two types of printing heads (2) and a maintenance station (6). This latter comprises a plate support (16) on which is secured at least two covers arranged in a direction perpendicular to the translation of the carriage (1). The plate support (16) is connected by a first pair of flat springs (17) to an intermediate plate (18) which is itself connected by a second pair of flat springs (19) to the frame (17) of the printer. This arrangement permits, with a single support driven by the advance of the carriage, effecting on the one hand the selection movement of the cover (2) to be applied and on the other hand the application movement of the selected cover against the plugged-in printer head. There is thus provided a very simple construction, with a low cost of production and operation.
