  • Patent number: 11688305
    Abstract: A label sheet assembly and method is disclosed for improving the process of feeding label sheets through a printer. The label sheet assembly may include a facestock layer and a liner sheet. The facestock layer may include an adhesive layer along at least a portion of a first side and include a label surface along at least a portion of the second side opposite the adhesive layer. The liner sheet layer may include at least one surface feature provided along a back side of the liner sheet. In another embodiment, the facestock layer may include at least one surface feature provided along the front of the facestock layer. The surface features may create a zone of increased friction or increase tactile sensitivity along the various surfaces of the label sheet assembly to improve printer processing.

  • Patent number: 11609489
    Abstract: Provided is a printable coating, printable media and printable labels thereof, usable in both inkjet and direct thermal printing applications. The coating comprises leuco dye blended into an inkjet coating formulation, wherein the coating is applied on the first face of an appropriate paper or film to form the printable media. The coating may be applied as a single, homogenous topcoat thereby streamlining the manufacturing process and reducing potential printing errors. The coating may provide a printable area compatible for use with both direct thermal printers and inkjet printers. On the opposite face of the paper or film, an adhesive may be applied, in combination with an optional release liner, to form printable label stock. Each step of the process, e.g. application of the coating, application of the adhesive and liner, and die-cutting of labels, may occur in any order combination relative to one another. In addition, reverse printing may also be utilized to print and form the labels.

  • Patent number: 11605313
    Abstract: A label sheet assembly is disclosed for improving the process of feeding label sheets through a printer. The label sheet includes a facestock layer and a liner sheet. The facestock layer includes an adhesive layer along a first side and include a label surface along a second side opposite the adhesive layer. The label sheet may include a puncture surface feature along a matrix portion of the facestock layer, wherein the puncture surface feature may include a plurality of puncture holes formed in a shape wherein each puncture hole that forms a slightly concave shape along one side and a slightly convex shape along the opposite side. The puncture surface features provides a zone of tactile sensitivity along the label sheet and are configured to reduce off-registration of printed indicia along the at least one label when processed through a printer device.

  • Patent number: 11200817
    Abstract: A label sheet assembly and method is disclosed for improving the process of feeding label sheets through a printer. The label sheet assembly may include a facestock layer and a liner sheet. The facestock layer may include an adhesive layer along at least a portion of a first side and include a label surface along at least a portion of the second side opposite the adhesive layer. The facestock layer may include at least one cut line that defines at least one label within the facestock layer while the remaining portions of the facestock layer may be a matrix portion. The matrix portion may include at least one discontinuous cut line spaced from the cut line that defines at least one label wherein the discontinuous cut line may create a zone of decreased bending stiffness along the label sheet assembly.
