  • Patent number: 10792935
    Abstract: In one example of the disclosure, a print agent is applied upon a length of web substrate. A dryer is utilized to dry the web substrate length. Moisture is applied to the web substrate length. The moisturized web substrate length is wound upon a spool to form a top liner length, with no dryer to be utilized to dry the web substrate length between the moisture application and the winding.
