Abstract
The machine is intended for the printing of selected characters on self-adhesive labels (5) forming a continuous series borne by a support strip (8). The inner circuit of this strip passes via a loop defined by an edge (11) at the level of which each label (5), after printing, is advanced by a step corresponding to its length, is separated from the support strip, and is directed below a pressure roller (12) in order to be glued by pressure onto an article to be labeled. In order to prevent the falling of the printed label before its gluing and in order to present it flat below the pressure roller (12) there are provided a cambering device which comprises two guides (20, 21) between which the label is stiffened by cambering in the direction of its displacement and the pressure roller itself, under which the edges of the label which have been raised by the cambering are brought downward.
