Abstract: A method for improving the wetness gradient of a plurality of packages containing stacks of wet wipes, and the associated container, are disclosed. The method may include the steps of providing a plurality of packages of wet wipes, disposing the primary packages in the interior space of a container bearing an indicium that is easily legible when the container is upside-down, inverting the container and thereby the packages to the upside-down orientation, and shipping the container in the upside-down position. The associated product may be the container bearing the indicium and containing the packages of wet wipes.

Abstract: A device for printing a web moving in a direction (YB), wherein ink jets print on the web a printing width across its direction (YB) of advancement while traversing a printing station. The printing station includes one or more printer heads that produce ink jets over a footprint width which is narrower than the intended printing width over the web. One or more shaping elements bestow on the web traversing the printing station a V-shape so that the web is at least locally oriented oblique to the linear array of nozzles that project the ink. The ink from the printer head(s) is thus printed over the intended printing width of the web.
