   I used this transparency film for my wedding invitations. I wanted something that would create clear crisp prints and this film did exactly that. Additonally, I didn’t want a flimsy film with the invitations having to travel through the mail. Each sheet held its structure, even after being printed on. Initially I had trouble discerning which side was the printable side, but upon a little inspection I discovered that one corner was notched indicating the printable side. I liked that I could use this product with my Canon photo printer and didn’t have to hunt all over the planet for the proper paper profile (Glossy worked out perfectly!) I did notice that much like glossy photo paper, if you held it in your bare hands it would sometimes leave finger prints. But the box did include a warning about handling it by the edges. I settled on wearing gloves which worked just fine. Also, I appreciated that each sheet was separated by a sheet of white tissue paper. It helped with separating the sheets and squelshing my fear of them smearing when stacked atop one another (But I do recommend letting them dry a minute or two before stacking-just to be safe.) My biggest problem with this product was that when I ran my first sheet through the printer, the film was curved, so that it got jammed in the printer, and smeared ink along the edges. (If you could imagine my panic, knowing I needed to print 100 invitations using this stuff!) I ended up taking the remaining sheets and squishing them between two big and heavy books, then leaving them in my hot car to cook and hopefully flatten out. After about 12 hours, I ran a seemingly flatter sheet through the printer and had no problems at all! Operation Wedding Invitation was a success! I will be buying more of this product to try printing some of my photographs on, since I so massively enjoyed how my invitations came out. 🙂 HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

   I’ve used both the Inkpress and Pictorico transparency film for making digital negatives for alternative processes. I print gum bichromate, platinum, palladium, chrysotype, vd brown, kallitype, argyrotype, cyanotype…you name it! I’ve gotten equal excellent results whether I use Inkpress or Pictorico brand films. In comparison, the Arista 5 mil film is bad! It doesn’t get as sharp of a print and it sticks badly to archival sleeves. I haven’t tried the 7 mil Arista yet, but since the Inkpress is about the same price, why bother? The big advantage of Inkpress over Pictorico at this size is that it’s available in these 50 sheet bulk packs, which saves a few extra $, and I’ve only seen Pictorico in 25 sheet or rolls. When I need to use roll for larger prints, I go with Pictorico, but when I’m doing letter size sheets for 8×10 or smaller, Inkpress is the thrifty choice. Great performance with inexpensive Canon Pixma printers too!

   I used these for a presentation. They are made for an ink jet printer, but I used them in a laser printer at UPS store and it worked perfectly with color as well.

   I use it for old photographic process in combination with an Epson printer. It seems to me goed. I dont have any problems. The sending to Europe was fast. I had it within 5 days.

   I’ve been using Inkpress transparency film for years for digital negatives and positives for alt photo processes and have been very happy with it. Unfortunately, to my surprise, my last order came not in the usual nice easy-to-use boxes that can be re-used for storing the printed negatives, but in re-designed flimsy packaging that makes handling transparencies without damaging them difficult. It requires sliding the whole stack out of the box each time I want to use one. Also I need to find different boxes for storing the printed negatives. I’m disappointed.

   the texture on the film holds the toner so we’ll that I do not have to use two transparencies to get block out for my particular use. It is worth the extra money ..
