I would REALLY like to be able to print these colored images on transparancy material to use on overhead projectors, but my attempts on 3 types of plastic stock in-house failed. The ink apparently didn't dry quickly enough and so was smeared horizontally by the movement of the printhead. The colors, however, ARE transparent, and if they dried quickly enough would make beautiful overheads! Does any know of an appropriate transparant stock which will take this ink (Apple color ribbon) or possibly a special ribbon which has fast-drying ink? Thanks, Jeff
