Abstract
A portable hand held and manually operated label printer and a method of its use in transferring information from a master plate onto a pressure sensitive label. The printer consists of a magazine section wherein a continuous roll of serially linked pressure sensitive labels are installed with the roll end thereof threaded through an appropriate passage into a manually operated label receiving and printing group. A printing roller arranged on a spring biased slide within the label receiving and printing group, is manually displaced to travel over one of the pressure sensitive labels, sandwiching it against a master plate, transferring raised characters formed on the master plate into the label. A follower arrangement is included with the slide having a hook formed on an end thereof that aligns with and travels into one of a number of strategically placed holes spaced at intervals in the roll of labels to pull the serially connected labels therewith as the slide is biased back to its starting attitude, thereby dispensing a printed label from the printer end.
