A3 OHP Acetate Transparency Film for Inkjet Printers 10 Sheets

After reading a negative review of this product I was a little hesitant to buy it, but as I needed some A3 transparencies in a hurry and these were by far the most affordable, I thought I'd take the risk and I have to say I am very happy with what I got. The film came with clear instruction s on how to use it - make sure that you print on the rough side! There is a paper strip which helps indicate the rough printable side from the smooth.Also, I have a new printer and it was automatically set to print on glossy paper however, the results were fantastic and actually allowed me to complete my first set of screen print orders. I'd definitely buy it again.

When I first used these transparencies with my brand new HP Office Jet 7110, I was in dismay after seeing just how translucent the design came out on the film. You could hold it up at the light and see your face clearly, I had thought that all my money had gone to waste.So I gave it several other tries, and eventually decided to double up the transparencies by printing the same design twice and taping them together.While you could still see my finger through the film, I gave it a shot with my coated screens and it worked perfectly. I would give this a 4 or even 5 star review, if it wasn't for the fact I had to use two to get it work.I'd imagine if you were using a different brand of emulsion to me, or mabye a different screen this would probably not work because even doubled up it's still not pure black or anywhere near it.

Absolute waste of money. I would ask for a refund but I stupidly put the whole pack In the bin when all the sheets I’d printed stuck together and ruined my planned work day.The instructions say they dry (usually) within an hour. I left them overnight and in the morning they were still tacky. I carefully packed them so at my destination I could still use them. I managed to get them out of the pack without ruining them but they stuck to everything when trying to use them.Print quality is also terrible compared with other similar products.It cost be £17.99 and every sheet was unusable. But it’s not just the money that’s annoying, it’s that it impacted in my days work. And not forgetting the 10 pages work of quinine Epson inks I used to print 10 pages.Do yourself a favour and avoid this product. It is not fit for purpose. As mentioned I would ask for a refund but by the the time I’d got them out of the pack and they stuck to each other and everything else they touched, I just binned them rather than think to keep them to ask for a refund.

Make sure you use the slightly rough side to print on. Worked well when using a good quality ink jet printer.

For me using my printers transparency setting gave a very weak print that was too transparent.So I ignored the instructions on print setting and used photo paper / best quality and that gave me an excellent opaque print on my brother inkjet.

Fast delivery which was great, however the film was not the best

This product is not suitable for screen printing or even inkjet printers I’d imagine. Using other acetate I get a crisp exposure. But printing with this on the same settings as I usually print (highest quality photo glossy paper) and you can actually see through the print. I even tried different settings with worse results. If my eyes can see through it then a uv light will!!1/10 would not buy again. Save your £19 and buy elsewhere.

I used these with an A3 Canon Pixma printer for screen print positives and they worked great. (make sure you print on the rough side)
