What this tool is for

This pack contains 100 letter-size, 5-mil sheets for printing film positives on an inkjet printer. A film positive carries the dark artwork you use to block exposure light where you want the stencil to open. Screen Print Direct describes the unprinted sheet as slightly milky, a useful distinction if you also need film for a project that calls for crystal-clear material.

Fit and buying advice

Letter sheets suit logos and smaller compositions that fit inside your printer’s actual image area. A printer’s margins can make the printable design smaller than the full sheet. Compare an 11 × 17-inch film and a printer that supports that size if you often print wider artwork. Before using a full run of film, check that your printer accepts coated inkjet transparency and that you know which face takes ink.

Questions about this tool

Can I use this in a laser printer?

This film is specified for inkjet printing. For a laser printer, use film explicitly approved for that printing process and for your machine.

Which face takes the artwork?

One face has the ink-receptive coating. The supplier suggests touching a spare corner with a damp fingertip. The tackier side is the one that takes ink. Feed the sheet in the orientation your printer requires.

When does a larger sheet pay off?

Choose a larger format if the design plus the printer margins exceeds letter size. Confirm the larger sheet is supported before buying a box.
