EF GH D BC A EF CD AB NON-LAMINATED TAPE Labels printed on non-laminated tapes can be folded in half so that the inside edges of the two backing pieces come off the label, enabling the backing to easily be peeled off. INSTANT-LETTERING TAPE (RUB-ON TRANSFERS) Instant-lettering tape is used to transfer your text onto paper.
☞ Hold the tape very firmly and do not move it while rubbing the tape.

After the backing tape has been removed, the transferred label may appear glossy. In addition, some white spots may have appeared on the label if it was touched while the backing tape was peeled off. These can be removed by ironing over the label with a piece of cloth placed between the label and the iron. Since the transferred label cannot be removed once it is applied, make all transfers with care.
