Abstract
Disclosed is a label printer for printing labels wound onto a roll that are applied to a carrier tape or that are linerless endless tape labels, having a housing in which a cartridge compartment is formed; a tape cartridge which at least comprises an unwinding mandrel, in which a label roll can be received, and which can be manually inserted into and removed from the cartridge compartment; and a printhead and a driven print roller, wherein the label tape of the label roll can be led between the printhead and the print roller. A spring device and a movable latching holder, which is preloaded into a latching position by a spring force of the spring device, allows the tape cartridge to be latched into the latching holder against the spring force on the insertion and to be unlatched from the latching holder against the spring force on the removal.
