ABSTRACT:
A device for printing a message at predetermined intervals along the backing of pressure sensitive adhesive tape. The device comprises a wheel, a peripheral segment of which contacts and supports the adhesive surface of a length of the tape. Raised arcuately disposed surface portions of a heated printing plate defining the message are moved into engagement with a dye impregnated web positioned against the backing of the length of tape supported on the wheel to sublime the dye and thereby print into the backing of the tape. Between printing operations the wheel is rotated to advance the tape along a path so that a new section of the tape is advanced to the wheel and the newly printed portion of the tape is peeled from the surface of the wheel and fed to a tape applying device.
