its Thermal
it HAS to be thermal. i dont think inkjet works
its the heat that transfers the carbon not the pressure of printing
you need a thermal printer for thermal fax paper
and a dot matrix printer for hectograph

try what i mentioned for stencils
it works like a beast!
ill put on a stencil and itll still be there when im done tattooing haha

that would be kewl
ive dabbled in graphic design since high school :3

ive never actually seen pictures of your machines rob haha
