The present invention is in the field of identifiers such as tags and labels, which may be used in advertising, marketing, communications or for designating a source of a particular product or service and relates to a method of manufacturing prime label intermediates in an unique continuous web format. The subject of this application specifically includes pressure sensitive laminates that are produced in a sheet to roll type of format and provided in one or more intermediate configurations to an end user. A series of sheets are pre-printed, then slit or cut to size to create individual ribbons or label segments, with each segment having prime label areas. The prime label segments are then applied to a continuously advancing web so as to create a web having a series of discontinuous label segments disposed thereon. 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, of more than about 150 lines per inch and preferably about about 300 lines per inch.
