Yea, Kevin -
Aren't the GOVERNMENT toll receipts great. They want you to keep a record
for taxes but just as you would expect they print everything
in vanishing ink.
The labels are "made of stunner stuff", they can take quite a bit more than
toll receipts... I don't know if it is the heat OR the UV that causes the
ink to disappear. Maybe you can do a test on that?
