A printer has a separation unit attached to a support board. The separation unit includes a guide rail hole to engage with a shaft so as to slide and swing with respect to the support board. The separation unit moves to a continuous ejection position in which one end of the guide rail hole comes in contact with the shaft, swings in a first rotation direction about the shaft in contact with the other end side of the guide rail hole so as to move away from a thermal head to a swing end position in which the separation unit on the forward end side is within a swing trajectory of the opening and closing cover, and swings from the swing end position in a second rotation direction while engaging on the forward end side with the opening and closing cover moving to the closed position so as to be located at a separation ejection position where the separation roller is adjacent to the feed roller when the opening and closing cover is located at the closed position.

A label dispenser apparatus configured for dispensing labels from a plurality of rolls of a carrier film having labels disposed thereon. The label dispenser apparatus includes a lower roll retaining member and a upper tape guide assembly. The lower roll retaining member includes a front edge, a back edge and a concave surface therebetween. The concave surface being configured to cradle a roll of film having labels disposed thereon. The upper tape guide assembly is spaced apart therefrom and includes a peel shaft, a support shaft and a carrier shaft. The film guide path extends behind and around the peel shaft, between the peel shaft and the support shaft, looping around the support shaft and over the carrier shaft, such that a label is released by the movement around the peel shaft, and the label path proceeds directly over the support shaft and the carrier shaft.

A manual sticker dispenser, configured to peel a sticker from a liner paper during a sticker conveying process. The manual sticker dispenser includes: a housing; a winding shaft, capable of winding the liner paper to convey the sticker to an output port; an operating member, configured to operatively reciprocate within a set range; and a transmission mechanism, transmission-connected to the operating member and the winding shaft, and capable of transmitting power output from the operating member to the winding shaft to drive the winding shaft to rotate. The transmission mechanism includes a one-way clutching device; the one-way clutching device is configured to be coupled in condition of the operating member moving in the first direction to implement a transmission of the power, and to be uncoupled in condition of the operating member moving in the second direction opposite to the first direction to disconnect the transmission of the power.

A labeling apparatus includes: a housing; a printing portion provided in the housing and configured to print on a plurality of labels of a label sheet being provided with an adhesive layer; a peeling portion provided in the housing and configured to peel the label printed by the printing portion from the elongated mount; a discharge portion provided in the housing and having a discharge port for discharging the label peeled by the peeling portion, the discharge port being arranged at an end portion that is away from the housing; and a gripping portion provided on a side of the housing different from the discharge portion and configured to allow a user to grip with one hand, wherein the discharge portion includes a holder configured to hold the label peeled by the peeling portion before the label is discharged from the discharge port.

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; a print head configured to pinch the print medium with the feed roller and to print information on the label; and a peeling unit configured to hold a peeling roller that faces the feed roller in peeling issuing. The peeling unit is movable between a closed position and an open position, the closed position being a position at which the peeling unit at least partly covers the print head, the open position being a position at which the peeling unit does not cover the print head. When the peeling unit is at the open position, space for allowing mounting and removing the print head is formed.
