A bottomless bag that provides a funnel-shaped receptacle designed to support the upper portion of a tapered container, such as a beverage cup or popcorn container, and allowing the bottom portion of the container to protrude through the open bottom of the bag. A method, apparatus, and system for fabricating such instruments are also disclosed. The band is wrapped about the longitudinal axis in a substantially helical manner to form a plurality of helical windings. 05 m to 1 m and secondary particles having a median diameter D50 in a range of from 0. The carbon based material layer serves as a robust mask for performing additional pattern transfer into the underlying layer, and may be easily stripped afterwards. The result is a barber pole style placement of printing information ink droplets on the recording medium which occurs repeatedly due to the rotational recirculation of the recording medium on the drum under the linearly moving printbar until full width print coverage is achieved.
