An example disclosed printer configured to peel media from a backing, the printer having a peeler assembly that is engageable between a peeling position, wherein the printer is configured to peel the media from the backing, and a non-peeling position, wherein the printer is not configured to peel the media from the backing. The printer further including a sensor configured to send a signal corresponding to a position of the peeler assembly. The printer further including a communication interface configured to receive the position of the peeler assembly from the sensor and configured to transmit the position of the peeler assembly to a secondary component.

An embodiment of the present invention is a printer in which peeling issuing and continuous issuing can be switched. Peeling issuing allows a label to be issued after being peeled from a liner of a print medium with the label releasably attached on the liner. Continuous issuing allows the label to be issued without being peeled from the liner. The printer includes a feed roller configured to feed the print medium and also includes a peeling unit including a peeling roller holder and a peeling roller cover. The peeling roller holder holds a peeling roller that faces the feed roller in peeling issuing. The peeling roller cover axially supports the peeling roller holder in a swingable manner and is movable between a closed position and an open position. When the peeling roller cover is at the open position, the peeling roller holder is swingable between a first position for facing a back surface of the peeling roller cover and a second position at which the peeling roller is not covered with the peeling roller cover. The peeling unit further includes a biasing member that biases the peeling roller holder from the first position to the second position.

A laser printhead assembly for a laser printhead is disclosed herein. The laser printhead assembly may include a laser containment door; and a laser containment housing that is configured to form a sealed enclosure with a label support of a label. The sealed enclosure may be configured to include the label and the laser printhead. The laser containment door, in a laser-enabled position, may be configured to permit the laser printhead, via a light beam, to modify the label and the laser containment door, in a laser-disabled position, may be configured to prevent a light beam from escaping the laser containment housing.

The present disclosure is directed to a printhead assembly for use in a printer. The printhead assembly includes a printhead connected to a printer holder. The printhead is movable between a lowered position and a lifted position. The printhead assembly also includes a lever subassembly. The lever subassembly includes a lever shaft, a locking mechanism configured to maintain the printhead assembly in a closed position when the locking mechanism is engaged, and a lever cam connected to the lever shaft and positioned adjacent to a portion of the printhead holder. The lever cam moves the printhead from the lowered position to the lifted position by engaging the printhead holder. The printhead is moved to the lifted position prior to disengaging the locking mechanism when moving the printhead assembly from the closed position to an open position.
