<p>A design for a metalized electrosensitive label stock, and similar die-cut substrates for electrothermal printing. Imprinting occurs when an image-bearing stylus at a given potential contacts one portion of the substrate's metalized surface, while a grounded member contacts a nearby surface area. The flow of current between the stylus and ground causes a selective melting of the label's surface, revealing a colored undercoat. The labels are die-cut from a label stock in such a pattern as to allow proper current flow while permitting the proper removal of labels.</p> |
