A guide to TN5C's sticker paper (washi and vellum)


I'd like to introduce you to our sticker paper, which you can find in our store. 


Below I'll introduce the differences between the papers; how it looks with laser printing vs inkjet printing and comparing both to a regular gloss sticker paper and matte sticker paper


Both the Vellum and Washi sticker paper are semi opaque and the main difference is in the texture. 

Vellum is smooth.
Washi has the typical washi tape texture.


The stickers are placed here on vellum paper, which is similar to tracing paper and is semi opaque.

You can see that whilst matte and glossy are fully opaque, both the washi and vellum are partially see through.


The stickers are shown here on an acrylic sheet.

Printing on a Laser Printer

We're printed the stickers on an HP colour laser printer. 

printer settings: we recommend using matte paper. (settings are the same for both papers)


As you can see, photos and text all print nicely. 
The vellum is slightly more vibrant than the washi sticker paper. 

 

Placed on vellum paper here. 


The stickers are layered here to show the various levels of transparency.

Printing on an Inkjet Printer

We're printed the stickers on a Canon colour inkjet printer. 

printer settings: we recommend using default settings. If that doesn't work well, try printing as tracing paper or high quality print. (settings are the same for both papers)


Photos can be printed but will not show the same sharpness as a regular print.
