An impact printer has a type drum, a plurality of hammers, a type drum gear secured to a shaft of the type drum, and a gear train including a drive gear and an intermediate gear engaged with the drive gear and type drum gear for driving the type drum. A lever is provided to rotate about a shaft of the drive gear. The intermediate gear is rotatably supported on the lever at one end thereof, and a spring is provided for urging the lever in the direction that the intermediate gear engages with the type drum gear. The rotational direction of the type drum gear is such that the rotation of the type drum gear causes the intermediate gear to revolve around the drive gear to brake the type drum. |
