The present invention is in the field of composite manufacturing systems that are used in the preparation of articles, namely pressure sensitive laminates such as prime labels and tags. The system of the instant specification includes a computer for creating a file, an image generation means for rendering typically a graphical depiction on one or more surfaces of a substrate, an inserter for placing ribbon or label segments and a web processing apparatus. The labels of the present invention are produced in part, initially from a pre-imaged or printed sheet that are then converted or merged to a roll type of format. The sheets are printed with high quality graphics or images which are then slit or cut to size to form ribbons or label segments for the prime label application and then are converted to or merged with a continuously advancing web to create a continuous roll format. Then the label segments that have been affixed to the web are provided in one or more intermediate configurations to an end user typically for application to consumer packaged goods. More particularly, the pressure sensitive laminates of the instant application can be used to create individual, prime labels having a high or photo quality resolution level such as those about 300 lines per inch or approximately 2500 to 3500 dots per inch.
