Thread: Best injet printer for printing Opaque black

    Best injet printer for printing Opaque black

    I previously posted about getting a flatbed printer, pretty much gave up on that idea for now.

    So what is the best injet printer for printing opaque black to a clear transparent sheet media. I do not need a printer wider than 13 to 17 inches. I will need to print non opaque colors as well.

    Thanks

    Inks for most (lower end printers) are transparent. Even laser toner is actually transparent.
    So you need to find one that will print and opaque white and print the black over it.

    If you can print on a laser printer you may try this;

    Also I guess if you could mask it (the area to be black) then you could spray it.

    Martin,

    Great find.
    I do have a laser printer and will give that a try.

    Thanks
