HP Premium InkJet Transparency Film 50 Sheets (C3834A)

Product works. The ink does smear a bit if you use it to cut a template with a hobby knife.
I used it to create a template for an insulation piece in the sunroom. The original pieces were 1/2 inch thick. I went to 2 inches thick. I used Adobe Indesign and put together a 2 point dashed line around the foam board using the transparency to do it. I then cut the sheet of transparency on the dashed lines to form the template. Then I used a magic black marker to mark the foam board. In all I cut about 42 pieces of foam board. The one transparency was still strong when I got done. I did think the transparency should have been thicker but it did work. I don't think the HP ink should have smeared after it had time to dry. I probably used the wrong side.

Simply the best transparency film you can buy.

This product works wonderfully in my Epson Stylus Photo 1280 printer. I like the HP transparencies better than the Epson transparencies. Type is more crisp and colors are more accurate with the hp transparencies.

These transparency sheets are thicker than other brands, and have a deeper grain on them. They hold ink better. The Office Depot brand is cheaper, but I lost time and money by using the off brand because the ink kept running.

In conclusion, using this brand could save you a lot of frustration; and in the long run they will save you money.

I bought this premium transparency film and had no problems using it in my old HP DeskJet. But then my HP DeskJet printer died and I bought an Epson Stylus C82.

These transparencies work like crap in the Epson, maybe by design? Instead of getting solid black areas, I get severe banding (tiny horizontal lines that ink doesn't stick to), making this stuff useless for the printed circuit board exposures I wanted to use it for. IBM transparencies work perfectly in the Epson printer, so I don't blame the printer, it's these HP transparencies.

Only buy these if you know you will only be using them on an HP printer!
