Demis,
At RIT we use laser printed transparencies printed on a small HP laser jet printer. The toner bonds right to the transparency.
Make sure you get the transparencies for toner and not ink. The ink ones will melt in your copier/ laser printer.

Regards,
Rob Pearson - RIT microelectronic engineering.

Subject: [labnetwork] Transparency masks

For one of our outreach events we print user’s images onto transparencies, for litho on an MA6.

However we often run into the problem that for some combination of transparencies and printer ink, the ink just rubs right off the plastic transparency, even if left to dry for hours!

We believe that the same transparencies that worked last year, this year had the ink rub off. Do we need to vac seal the transparencies when unused?

If anybody knows what the combo is that works/fails, your advice would be greatly appreciated.
