Is anyone able to tell me if the printer HP 130 Designjet is able to print on acetate or transparency film? The media spec page on the HP website lead me to believe that it will and also five of the inks used with the printer are dye based but the black ink HP use for the 130 is pigment based and that would lead me to believe it won’t print on acetate or transparency film?

Can anyone confirm?

Many thanks.

Vincent

I imagine it's down to the coatings on the acetate/films you're using. I print HP No83 Pigment inks onto transparencies regularly on my Designjets.
