The machine works with paper on which the glue has already been applied, so you only have to get them wet with a little water to make the sticky. I think the right translation is "dull gum", in german it is "trockengummiert". You can buy this kind of paper in all kind of variations. I print them at home with a laser printer and cut them myself. This allows me to use the machine even if I only bottle very few bottles with lots of different labels. The colored roller is running in water and wets the labels. The roller above it pushed down and "removes" the water which is to much. The transparent parts are made out of polycarbonate, all rolles run on ball bearings. The papaper-pickup roller only runs for an adjustable time (time relais from ebay), this time has to be adjusted to the length of the label. The roller all the way in the front can be placed in different positions, it is not motor-driven. This allow to adjust the machine in order to label bottles up to 1
