Register a print on the decal carrier?

[binki]

I have a request to print decals and to print some text on the carrier paper on the back. It looks like we will need to register this print to the decal when they are cut down. I have a Versacamm. Is this even possible? Tips on how to do this?

Certainly the customer wishes to identify himself on the product. I print thousands of decals and put my contact information on the FRONT (vinyl side). It's all one step during printing the decals. I also add the REORDER number and a note: Shrinkage is normal. This note for shrinkage on calendared vinyl due to the incredible shrinkage that occurs over time.

You can't print on the back of the carrier paper. Try writing on it.

I can print on the carrier sheet back with my gerber edge. - but would have reservations with solvent printer.

Wouldn't just printing labels on vinyl and slapping them on the backside achieve the same effect and be a way more efficient process?

I think OP is looking for liner to be printed like say, Avery or Oracal. I recall there being a couple threads on the subject here. I think the resounding answer was, unless you are huge like say Oracal or Avery and able to produce the volume of printed liners like say, Oracal or Avery... Its not practical at the retail customer level.
