Abstract
A cutting mechanism for a flat material web housing a printer unit, in particular for the production of labels or tags. The cutting mechanism includes an entrance section, a cutter section, and an exit section. A damping device formed by a damping plate or a piece of damping metal is provided to take up and damp any shock waves occurring in the flat material web as a result of the cutting action. To be able to define and adjust the position relative to a printer unit, an adjusting device is provided so that the housing of the cutting mechanism can be adjusted relative to the mounting section of the printer unit.
