ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a label printing and applying apparatus. A separate label printer and label applier are provided. A label holder, separably attachable to the printer and to the applier, receives a web of labels after they are printed while the label holder is attached to the printer. The label holder is separated from the printer and is attached to the applier and then the holder delivers labels to the applier for being applied. When a roll of labels has been wound upon the label holder, a cutting knife cuts the label web, thereafter permitting separation of the label holder from the label printer. Printing of the labels is done on a rotary platen on the label printer. A drive transmission connects the rotary platen with the label winding roll for rotating the roll when the label holder is on the label printer. Instructions to the printer for printing particular indicia are inputted. A memory circuit on the label holder stores the inputted instructions for each label. When the label holder is attached to the label applier, a sensor on the label applier counts the labels being dispensed and indicates from the memory circuit the indicia that had been printed on the label then being applied by the label applier.
