Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

     On February 16, 2006, Paxar Corporation (the "Company") announced its
financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31,
2005. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current
Report on Form 8-K ("Form 8-K").

     The attached press release includes a discussion of operating income,
operating margin, net income and diluted earnings per share excluding
restructuring and related costs, which are non-GAAP measures, and a
reconciliation of each to a GAAP measure. It also includes earnings per share
guidance for 2006 excluding restructuring and other non-recurring costs, which
is a non-GAAP measure. However, at this time the Company is unable to quantify
the magnitude of such restructuring and other non-recurring costs in 2006 and,
accordingly, is unable to reconcile such forward-looking information to GAAP
measures without unreasonable effort. The Company uses the foregoing non-GAAP
measures to evaluate and manage its operations internally. It also provides this
information to assist investors in performing additional financial analysis that
is consistent with financial models developed by research analysts who follow
the Company.

     In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in
this Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed to be "filed" for the
purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, and
shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other
document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be
expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
