Abstract
A label continuum (R) in which a number of printed labels (L) are temporarily stacked on a mounting sheet (S) is made to travel from a label holder (31), and the mounting sheet (S), after being turned by a turn pin (32), is wound while pulled by a motor (21). In keeping with this, each of the labels (L) is peeled off and its non-adhesive face is brought to the sticking section of a rotator. By a mounting sheet slack detecting circuit (50), the motor (21) is driven when the mounting sheet is slack, while by a label detecting circuit (60), the motor (21) is driven until a label is completely stuck and a next label is peeled off and is brought to the sticking section.
