The printer is a printer for printing on a label continuous body including a label detecting unit having a light-emitting portion configured to emit a detecting light and a light-receiving portion configured to receive the detecting light and a control unit configured to adjust a light emitting output of the detecting light in the light-emitting portion, so as to bring an output voltage from the label detecting unit when the light-receiving portion receives a detecting light through the liner to which the label is not temporarily attached, closer to an output voltage from the label detecting unit when the light-receiving portion receives a detecting light through a state in which there is no label continuous body between the light-emitting portion and the light-receiving portion.

The invention relates to a method for removing defects on a stationary web of a packaging material (106), comprising moving said web of packaging material (106) through a repair line from a first rotatable roller (121) to a second rotatable roller (122) in a first direction, cutting off said web of packaging material (106) at a first predetermined position, guiding said web of packaging material (106) of said first roller (121) into a second direction, wasting said web of packaging material (106) of said first roller (121) by movement in said second direction to a waste station, cutting off said web of packaging material (106) of said first roller (121) at a second predetermined position, guiding said web of packaging material (106) of said first roller (121) back into said first direction, splicing said web of packaging material (106) of said first roller (121) back together with said web of packaging material (106) of said second roller (122) at said first predetermined position, wherein said method is automated. The invention further relates to a device for removing defects on a stationary web of a packaging material.

In some embodiments, a method for manufacturing a packaging material includes forwarding a web of said packaging material through a nip provided between an anvil roller and an imprint roller which are arranged against each other, said imprint roller having a surface area including an imprinting area and a non-imprinting area, said imprinting area comprising protrusions forming an imprinting pattern. The method can further include imprinting the imprinting pattern into an outermost layer of said packaging material with said imprinting pattern as said web passes through the nip to form a visual or tactile pattern on the packaging material corresponding to said imprinting pattern. The method can further include adjusting the position of said web when said non-imprinting area of said surface area faces said packaging material The disclosure also relates to an apparatus for manufacturing a packaging material and a packaging material.

A winding device includes a first roller that winds label roll paper that is composed with a continues base sheet, a plurality of labels and a marginal portion, a second roller that winds the marginal portion peeled off the label roll paper, a drive part that generates a driving force for the second roller to rotate, a drive transmission control part that is provided between the drive part and the second roller such that the driving force is transmitted to the second roller from the driving part, and stops transmitting the driving force to the second roller if a load placed on the second roller exceeds a prescribed load, a detection part that detects a rotation of the second roller, and a control part that determines a cutoff of the marginal portion based on the rotation of the second roller detected by the detection part.
