APPARATUS FOR PRINTING AND APPLYING PRESSURE SENSITIVE LABELS Abstract of the Disclosure The application discloses apparatus for printing and applying pressure sensitive labels carried on a web of supporting material. The apparatus includes a platen, a print head mounted for movement into and out of printing cooperation with the platen, a delaminator for delaminating printed labels from the supporting material web, an applicator for applying printed labels, a feed wheel having teeth for advancing the web and effecting label delamination at the delaminator, and a mechanism for moving the print head into printing cooperation with the platen and for thereafter moving the feed wheel for advancing the web. The moving mechanism includes ratchet teeth coaxial with the feed wheel and a pawl for engaging the ratchet teeth, a first pivotal lever, and a second pivotal lever. The second lever is pivotally rotated in one direction in response to pivotal rotation of the first lever in the opposite direction to effect movement of the print head into cooperation with the platen. A return spring returns the first and second levers and the print head to their initial positions and causes the pawl to drive the ratchet tooth and advance the feed wheel.
