Abstract (en)
A label printing machine comprises a label stock supply station, a printed label stock collection station spaced from the supply station, a first printing mechanism for printing background label information onto the label stock, a second printing mechanism for printing variable label information onto the label stock, the first and second printing mechanisms being spatially disposed along the label stock flow path between the supply and collection stations, and a microprocessor linked to the second printing mechanism for inputting selected information into said printing mechanism. An indexing mechanism is provided to index the label stock between the supply and collection stations in predetermined but variable steps between dwells during which printing is effected, and comprises a nip through which the label stock passes and defined by a pressure roller and an indexing roller driven by a stepping motor linked to and controlled by the microprocessor.
