ABSTRACT:
Indicia such as tax stamps are applied to objects such as cigarette packs by driving a heated ram against the back of an indicia supply tape to cause the indicium to transfer from the tape to the object. If the object is contained in outer packaging such as cigarette carton packaging, that outer packaging is opened prior to applying the indicia to the objects. Then the outer packaging is reclosed. The indicia supply tapes are contained in cartridges which are easily removed for reloading and storage in a secure place. The cartridges are mounted on heads in the machine which are movable to facilitate applying indicia with various spacings and in various arrangements.
