Linerless label cut-off

A linerless label dispenser, comprising:

• a support for a supply of continuous form linerless labels, each label having a pressure sensitive adhesive face and an adhesive-release material coated face;
• a guide structure having adhesive release material thereon for engaging the adhesive face of labels from said supply of labels and guiding the labels for movement in a downstream direction;
• a print head, on a downstream side of said guide structure from said supply of labels, and in registration with the continuous form linerless labels on their adhesive-release material coated faces for printing the release material coated face of labels from said supply of labels;
• a surface, on the downstream side of said print head from said guide structure, said surface having adhesive-release material thereon;
• a stationary anvil blade, on the downstream side of said surface from said print head, for engaging the adhesive face of labels from said supply of labels;
• an automatic rotary cutter cooperating with said stationary anvil blade for engaging the release material coated face of labels from said supply of labels, and cutting individual labels to be dispensed from said supply of continuous form linerless labels;
• said surface being disposed at an upwardly directed angle of between about 20-35 degrees with respect to a horizontal direction so that the labels printed by said print head move upwardly at an angle from said print head to said rotary cutter;
• said surface having a plurality of upwardly extending extensions formed thereon for decreasing frictional resistance of said surface to the labels;
• and
• an exit roller disposed on an opposite side of said rotary cutter from said print head, said exit roller having an adhesive-release material surface engaging the adhesive face of a cut label, for conveying and dispensing the cut label.
