Abstract: A single multipurpose tuck label/form is provided and is imprinted with only a single pass of a printer. The multipurpose tuck label/form includes a label ply and a liner ply, both having respective first and second sides. The first side of the liner ply contacts the second side of the label ply and includes a release coating thereon. Through a unique placement of the release coating on the liner ply and pattern-coated adhesive on the label ply, the tuck label/form can be imprinted in a single pass through a computer-driven printer and may be used without the need for any die cuts to be made on the liner ply.

Abstract: Multiple ply labels include removable single ply portions for use in facilitating package shipment operations. Two-ply and a three-ply embodiments are disclosed with release material being applied to portions of a second or bottom ply which are overlain by tab portions of a first or top ply having adhesive applied to the underside of the tab portions and around the periphery of the top and bottom plies to adhere the plies to one another to assemble the labels. The tab portions are preferably formed by die cuts; however, lines of weakness created for example by creasing or lines of perforations can be used to make the tab portions readily separable from the top ply. Card portions are also formed by lines of perforations or other lines of weakness in the top ply with the card portions being formed clear of any adhesive coating such that they are free of adhesive for filing, mailing or other applications related to the package shipment operations.

Abstract: A printable product label assembly having a selectably adhesive portion is provided. The label assembly includes a printable face sheet overlying a liner sheet, a releasable adhesive securing a first portion of the face sheet to a first portion of the liner sheet such that the face sheet and liner sheet are readily separable upon the application of a sufficient delaminating force. A pressure sensitive adhesive secures a second portion of the face sheet to a second portion of the liner sheet such that when the label is removed from the liner sheet, only a selected area of the label includes the pressure sensitive adhesive, while the remainder of the label is nontacky to the touch.

Abstract: A multi-ply form or label which utilizes a clean release adhesive for securing one or more of the plies together is provided. Different embodiments provide a laminated postal card or mailer having a return envelope or a multi-ply product label. In all of these embodiments of the invention, the plies of the label, postal card, or form are secured together in a manner which withstands rough handling and minimizes lost or torn plies. The various embodiments of the invention also include both preprinted information as well as the capability to record variable information on more than one ply in a single printing pass.
