Abstract
Paper is disclosed for use in making repositionable or removable adhesive labels. The adhesive can be applied in patches or discrete areas to the paper or to a layer of material that cleans rollers in the manufacturing line and/or in printers. The adhesive can be applied in single or multiple layers. The paper is light weight paper and preferably thermal paper for use in POS printers.

Paper for use as linerless adhesive labels in printers, the paper comprising:
- a paper substrate having a width extending between lateral edges, a longitudinal axis extending along the center of the width, a first side and a second side;
- the first side supporting at least one release layer;
- the second side supporting at least one layer of adhesive;
- at least one layer of material between the adhesive and the second side of the paper substrate, which aids in cleaning printer components when the labels are being printed;
