Abstract

A receipt and label roll comprises a core and a web having a longitudinally-extending axis and wound on the core along the axis. The web includes (i) a substrate having a front side and a back side opposite the front side, (ii) a thermally-sensitive coating disposed on the front side of the substrate, (iii) adhesive disposed on a portion of the back side of the substrate along the web axis, and (iv) a release coating disposed on the front side of the substrate along the web axis to prevent the adhesive from sticking to the front side of the substrate when the web is wound on the core. The web further includes (v) a longitudinal weakened structure extending along a direction parallel to the web axis and dividing the web into a first web portion on which the adhesive is disposed and a second web portion which is substantially devoid of adhesive.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A combined receipt and label, comprising:
a substrate;
a first portion of the substrate; and
a second portion of the substrate;
wherein the first and second portions are joined side-by-side by a perforation that when separated produces a receipt portion of the substrate and a label portion of the substrate, and wherein a backside of the label portion includes adhesive and a backside of the receipt portion is devoid of adhesive, wherein the first and second portions are equal-sized portions.

2. The combined receipt and label of claim 1 , wherein a front side of the first portion includes a release coating.

3. The combined receipt and label of claim 1 , wherein a front side of the first portion and a front side of the second portion include a thermal imaging coating.

4. The combined receipt and label of claim 1 , wherein the backside of the label portion includes spots of the adhesive.

5. The combined receipt and label of claim 1 , wherein the backside of the label portion includes strips of the adhesive.

6. The combined receipt and label of claim 1 , wherein the backside of the label portion includes a pattern of adhesive.

7. A combined receipt and label, comprising:
a receipt portion defined on a substrate;
a label portion defined on the substrate; and
a longitudinally weakened portion that divides the substrate into the receipt portion and the label portion;
wherein a backside of the label portion includes an adhesive, and a front side of the label portion includes a release coating, wherein the longitudinally weakened portion is a perforation that divides the substrate into a first size for the receipt portion and a second size for the label portion, and wherein the first size is equal to the second size.

8. The combined receipt and label of claim 7 , wherein a backside of the receipt portion is devoid of adhesive.

9. The combined receipt and label of claim 7 , wherein the backside of the label portion includes the adhesive arranged in a pattern.

10. The combined receipt and label of claim 7 , wherein a front side of the label portion and a front side of the receipt portion includes a thermal imaging coating.

11. A combined receipt and label, comprising:
a substrate having a perforation that when separated divides the substrate into a label portion and a receipt portion, wherein a back side of the label portion includes adhesive, wherein the label portion and the receipt portion when separated are of equal sizes.
