【発明の名称】細長い印刷可能なシート複合体
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPH11510110
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A method for forming a custom printed sheet bearing a layer of adhesive using a printer that drives a sheet along a sharply arcuate path past printing head means on the printer. An elongate sheet composite is provided that includes an elongate primary sheet portion of a width adapted to be received and fed through the printer, and a secondary sheet portion positioned adjacent the primary sheet portion with edges of the primary and secondary sheet portions generally aligned; and a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive extending between the adjacent surfaces of the sheet portions. The sheet composite has transverse paths of weakness at spaced locations along its length to define a concatenation of sheet composite segments. The sheet composite is folded in opposite directions along successive transverse paths of weakness to form a stack of sheet composite segments. The sheet composite is fed from the stack longitudinally through the printer while the printer is actuated to form a desired message along a portion of the sheet composite, after which the printed portion of the sheet composite can be torn off, and its first and second portions separated to expose the layer of adhesive so that the message bearing portion of the sheet composite can be adhered to a substrate.
