Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0095737A2] A destination label printer (28) is incorporated with an automatic postal matter processing apparatus (100). In the latter apparatus, a postal code of postal matter (A) such as cards, letters, etc. is optically read out and then stored in a memory as a postal code data. A quantity of postal matter is automatically sorted into a plurality of mail stacks (B), each of which has the same postal code, in accordance with the postal code data. Then the sorted mail stacks (B) are conveyed out from the processing apparatus (100). The destination label printer (28) comprises a printing section (42), a label convey section (43), and a label transfer section (44). This printer (28) operates as follows. Character patterns, bar codes and so on are printed on a blank label for the destination label (80) by the printing section based upon the contents of the sorting information obtained from the stored postal code data. The printed destination label (80) is transported from the printing section to the transfer section through the convey section. The label is transferred from the transfer section and attached to the mail stack designated by the corresponding postal code data.
