However the laser printing is capable of printing more vibrant colors than the inkjet, so any bold, poppy tones (especially hot pinks, etc.) will get run through the laser. (All my supplies and printers are listed here at /supplies!) I will, of course, still use this printer as well, and mainly use my new laserjet for white ink. Printers will usually have 4-color cartridges (CMYK), so the magic of my white ink printer is that I’m simply swapping out the K cartridge (a.k.a black) for a W cartridge (a.k.a white.) and DECEIVING IT WITH TRICKERY! (Sidenote: not sure if it’s actually called the W cartridge but it makes sense so we’re rollin’ with it.)Īlso, If y’all have followed me for a while, you know I print all my envelopes in-house on my inkjet Canon IP8720 printer. Your printer reads “white” as the absence of color, so its not actually laying down any ink. So why is this a big deal? Typically white ink printing cannot be achieved by your average printer - you’ll need foil, engraving, white calligraphy OR a fancy white toner to get this look. ![]() (Plus it shaves off a few days in my production timeline, which makes everyone a happy camper!) White ink printing at home?! YEP, it’s totally possible, and IMHO, totally worth the investment! I have previously been outsourcing any jobs that require white printing, but it made sense financially for me to be able to offer this service in-house. ![]()
