Mx VerdaThe small thermal printer takes 53 mm width or smaller, so “A9 size, 37 x 52 mm, 1.5 x 2 in”. The big thermal printer takes Legal (216 x 356 mm) or smaller. For context, A4 size is 210 x 297 mm, 8.3 x 11.7 in. (Width is the only important part tho, tbf.)<a href="https://doubledragon.co.uk/shop/printers-labels/adhesive-thermal-labels/57-30mm-sticker-thermal-paper/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://doubledragon.co.uk/shop/printers-labels/adhesive-thermal-labels/57-30mm-sticker-thermal-paper/</a><a href="https://paper-size.com/c/a-paper-sizes.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://paper-size.com/c/a-paper-sizes.html</a> …. Ok now what would be great is <a href="https://www.globepackaging.co.uk/6-x-rolls-of-extra-strong-reinforced-gummed-paper-water-activated-tape-48mm-x-100m.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.globepackaging.co.uk/6-x-rolls-of-extra-strong-reinforced-gummed-paper-water-activated-tape-48mm-x-100m.html</a> if the roll itself were smaller so I could print on that — wait, probably doesn’t have the whatever that thermal paper has. :/<a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/SheSellsStationery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SheSellsStationery</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/ThermalPrinter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ThermalPrinter</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/ThermalPrinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ThermalPrinting</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/stationery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#stationery</a>

Mx VerdaOk so the Pocketjet PJ-663 manual says, “- Avoid contact with Diazo (blueprint), carbon-less, or cast-coated papers.- Avoid contact with vinyl or acetate materials, such as many notebook or report covers.- Avoid contact with organic solvents, oils, and ammonia.- When using a coloured marker, be sure to use one with a water-based ink. If you use a solvent-based marker, it may darken the paper.”So like, I can watercolour just fine, but not acrylic paint them (fine by me). The laminate is made of PET, which is polyester? Is polyester “cast-coated”?<a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/ThermalPrinter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ThermalPrinter</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/ThermalPrinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ThermalPrinting</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/ThermalPaper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ThermalPaper</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/laminate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#laminate</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/chem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chem</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/organic_chem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#organic_chem</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/chemistry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chemistry</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/AskAChemist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AskAChemist</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/Physics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Physics</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/better" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#better</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/also" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#also</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/Math" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Math</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/Maths" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Maths</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/whatever" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#whatever</a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/hashtag" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hashtag</a>

Mx VerdaNERDS! Can I use laminating film in a thermal printer to laminate thermal paper?I don’t have either yet, but I bought a got thermal printer for printing my course forms without further HP-inflicted mental rate abscesses. I was looking at paper so I’d be ready to print my coursework for next class and the ebay ads confused me for a second.… also I want to print stickers.
