[Solution] A phenol resin whose softening point is 70 to 125° C., a tackifier, a colorant, and an organic solvent were compounded together. It is preferable to use an alcohol having one to three carbon atoms as the organic solvent. Additionally, it is preferable to use a terpene phenol resin whose hydroxyl value is 10 to 45 mgKOH/g as the tackifier in dye-based compounding, and it is preferable to use a rosin ester resin whose acid value is 2 to 10 mgKOH/g as the tackifier in pigment-based compounding.
