The present machine is intended for the printing of selected characters on labels borne by a continuous tape (13) passing over a print table (11) and driven by a chassis (22) imparted a reciprocating movement by the operating of a trigger. In order to prevent the strip of labels from being pulled towards the outside at the time of the pulling off of the label said machine has a hand brake (28, 30) located in front of the print table. This brake comprises a pivoting brake shoe (28) which is placed out of operation during the transport stroke of the continuous strip (13) by an interceptor (32) which is fastened to the transport chassis (22). This arrangement is established in order to permit a precise and effective braking action without requiring recourse to tolerances which are incompatible with mass production. |
