adhesive paper not vinyl

I am looking for a cheap very short term label. It does not need to be vinyl it can be paper, is there such an item? Cheap perm adhesive paper

bad design kills
I think Roland is the only roll option anymore.
Other option is running adhesive backed paper though a laser printer and trimming down.

FWIW the Roland glossy adhesive photo paper is pretty nice and works well for short term stuff. Be aware that it's a pretty aggressive adhesive that will tear the paper apart if you mis-apply and try to pull it back up. Once it's stuck it's done. It's also a little bit of a PITA to remove from the backing on an edge if the media is cut to the same edge as the liner, so plan your cuts/weeding appropriately for that. If you just print and then square cut everything, you're gonna fight to get it off the backing, so if this is something you're giving to a client to apply, leave a weeded border around at least one of the edges.

A cheap roll of vinyl will probably be more affordable than any adhesive-backed paper rolls you will find.
Sihl has an adhesive-backed "art" paper but it definitely doesn't fall into the cheap category.

Hi,
If you want to go cheap,
purchase a dual-sided mount film and laminate it to the back of plain plotter paper.

remember to print the paper 1st, drop the pass count down to avoid over saturation
