Claims
- 1. A printed substrate made by the process comprising:
- continuously moving a substrate having a printing surface and an opposed inner surface,
- folding the substrate in half and aligning the lateral edges thereof, so that the printing surface defines a first printing surface and a second printing surface, and the inner surface defines a first inner surface and a second inner surface,
- moving the folded substrate to a printing station,
- printing a first pattern on the first printing surface at the printing station,
- reversing the first and second printing surfaces,
- printing a second pattern on the second printing surface at the printing station, and
- unfolding the substrate after it has been printed.
- 2. The substrate of claim 1 further comprising collecting ink strikethrough from one of the first and second printing surfaces onto the inner surface of the other of the first and second printing surfaces.
- 3. The substrate of claim 1 further comprising registering the first and second patterns.
- 4. The substrate of claim 1 wherein the printing is flexographic printing.
- 5. The substrate of claim 1 wherein the printing is rotogravure printing.
- 6. The substrate of claim 1 wherein the printing is ink-jet printing.
- 7. The substrate of claim 1 further comprising drying and cooling the substrate.
- 8. The substrate of claim 1 further comprising radiation curing the substrate.
- 9. The substrate of claim 1 further comprising slitting the unfolded substrate.
- 10. The substrate of claim 1 wherein the substrate has a basis weight equal to or less than about 20 grams per square meter.
