Many thanks to my wallet for providing the review sample. Of course, you can use MicroFormat's white decal sheets to get around that - or simply make two copies of each image, and place one over the other for increased opacity. The only concerns I can see are that one can't print a white background with any of the inkjets I know of - and without a solid background, your decals may be translucent (to the point where background colors, especially camouflage patterns, show through). but then the usual stuff requires more investment in hardware. It's more expensive than the usual decal papers. If you do not have access to an ALPS or color laser (or color photocopier), then give this stuff a try. It stuck to the SuperCal better, though still flaking off in spots. With normal decal sheet, the white from this printer often does not lay down very well. I also tried undercoating the image with white using the ALPS. Again, there were no problems running the paper through the printers, and the test images looked fine when printed. On a whim, I took the stuff to the office and tested the paper with both an ALPS MD-1000 and an OKIDATA 8 color laser printer. ![]() I let it dry for a few minutes (as I normally do when printing to regular paper), and was subsequently unable to smear the ink just by handling. It also does not have any of the little crosses or dots that one often gets with an ALPS or color laser. Absolutely no problems, and the image looks sharp on the paper. I tested one 1" x 1" image with my HP 850C printer, set at 600 DPI resolution. And, to be honest, it's not bad stuff at all. This is the only decal paper I can use with an inkjet. Not a whole heck of a lot for my $20 plus shipping, especially considering that I can get ten or so blank 9" x 11" traditional sheets at the hobby shop for the same price, and double that from various on-line sources. ![]()
