Abstract

A device for dispensing a label from a backing strip comprises a cartridge, a tab, and a detaching mechanism. The tab includes a first side, a second side and distal end. The detaching mechanism is configured to operatively cause the strip of backing material to be routed along each of the first and second sides of the tab and configured to detach the label from the strip of backing material as the corresponding strip of backing material traverses the distal end of said tab.
