Abstract:
A flexible belt is disclosed for use in a printing system. The belt comprises an endless strip which, in use, travels along a continuous path. Formations are provided along the sides of the strip which are capable of engaging with lateral tracks to place the belt under lateral tension, the lateral tracks further serving to constrain the belt to follow the continuous path.

Claim (Index 36):
The system of  claim 30  wherein the endless strip is laterally tensioned by both: (i) a flat and horizontal-facing surface of an upper rolling bearing element in horizontal contact with a horizontally-facing portion of the formation at a location above the endless strip; and (ii) a flat and horizontal-facing surface of a lower rolling bearing element in horizontal contact with a horizontally-facing portion of the formation at a location below the endless strip.
