The invention relates to a liner- free label activator, adapted to be joined to another piece of equipment, such as a thermal printer. The activator has a housing including a reservoir for containing a solvent and a pump connected to the reservoir. The activator also has an applicator connected to the pump for applying solvent to a liner- free label passing thereby, an activator control system to connect to a control system of the printer, and structure for connecting the housing to the printer. L'invention porte sur un activateur d'étiquette sans revêtement, apte à être réuni à un autre élément d'équipement, tel qu'une imprimante thermique. L'activateur a un boîtier comprenant un réservoir pour contenir un solvant et une pompe reliée au réservoir. L'activateur a également un applicateur relié à la pompe pour appliquer un solvant sur une étiquette sans revêtement passant par celui-ci, et un système de commande d'activateur pour la connexion à un système de commande de l'imprimante, et une structure pour relier le boîtier à l'imprimante.
