Abstract

A cigarette rod wrapper is cut from a paper web which is preprinted on its outer surface firstly with brand legend (33) and longitudinally spaced registration markings (32), and then on its inner face with a profiled deposit (34) of an additive such as a nicotine component. The registration markings (32) are used both to ensure longitudinal registration of the printed deposit (34), and in the rod making machine to ensure that the tobacco rod is cut at the correct position. The registration marking (32) is covered in use by a tipping wrapper (43) which unites the tobacco rod with a filter element (42).
