A method for printing and applying labels comprises printing indicia on a first label using a printer to form a first printed label and holding the first printed label in a holding tray. The method includes moving an arm from an original position to a first position to collect the first printed label from the holding tray, and rotating the arm in a first direction to move the first printed label towards a substrate. The method comprises moistening the first printed label to activate a dissolvable liner of the first printed label. The method includes using the arm to apply the moistened first printed label to the substrate. The arm is rotated in a second direction away from the substrate. The printer prints a second label before the arm returns to the original position to collect the second label from the holding tray.

Labeling systems and methods of making and using same

A label peeler system includes a first outer bracket having a first angled surface and a second outer bracket having a second angled surface. The label peeler system comprises a first movable bracket pivotably coupled to the first outer bracket and a second movable bracket pivotably coupled to the second outer bracket. A peel bar is secured to the first angled surface and the second angled surface, and a peel roller is rotatably disposed above the peel bar. A first roller is rotatably coupled to the first outer bracket and the second outer bracket. A second roller is rotatably coupled to the first movable bracket and the second movable bracket. The first roller and the second roller are configured to collectively pull the liner away from the label after the label is peeled by the peel bar.
