Abstract
A laser printable sheet with vehicular registration and permitting decals and/or stickers is produced in a manner that insures the sheet lays-flat, rather than being crooked, so that it does not cause significant jamming problems in laser printers. Adhesive-release material is spot coated on a web back surface, including a first patch, the back surface is imaged with static indicia, and a substantially transparent plastic pressure sensitive adhesive laminate is applied over the back surface, including over the adhesive release material patch and first static indicia. The face is die cut at the first patch within the parameter of the patch to form the first die cut portion, which is then sucked off the substrate to provide an open area with exposed transparent plastic and pressure sensitive adhesive, and then a piggy back decal is blown onto the open area. The decal is preferably a license plate decal having a reflective visible surface in vehicular registration and permitting indicia. Preferably the sheet also includes an inspection sticker, may include a second license plate decal, as well as variably printed registration information.
