Abstract

A label, method of printing and method of manufacture that includes a label comprising a transparent protective layer, a thermosensitive image-forming adhesive layer and a release liner. The transparent protective layer is of a thickness and weight, which permits sufficient heat to be conducted through it to the thermosensitive image-forming adhesive layer to cause thermally active dye in the thermosensitive image-forming adhesive layer to change color in the area where the heat is conducted.
