Dites, y'en a parmi vous qui ont déjà configuré des tailles d'impression exotiques sur LibreOffice/OpenOffice ?

Typiquement pour imprimer sur des tickets de caisse, c'est-à-dire des rouleaux de 80mm de large sur 2000 cm de long.

Ça change la taille de la police de caractères en fonction de la taille de page configurée dans LibreOffice.

Did the first duotone example of this with a friend straight from an A4 sheet in Clip Studio Paint :] it ain't much but it's honest work and makes me really happy because since it DOES work, the implications are great :3

The small thermal printer takes 53 mm width or smaller, so “A9 size, 37 x 52 mm, 1.5 x 2 in”.
The big thermal printer takes Legal (216 x 356 mm) or smaller.
For context, A4 size is 210 x 297 mm, 8.3 x 11.7 in. (Width is the only important part tho, tbf.)

…. Ok now what would be great is https://www.globepackaging.co.uk/6-x-rolls-of-extra-strong-reinforced-gummed-paper-water-activated-tape-48mm-x-100m.html if the roll itself were smaller so I could print on that — wait, probably doesn’t have the whatever that thermal paper has. :/

Ok so the Pocketjet PJ-663 manual says,
“- Avoid contact with Diazo (blueprint), carbon-less, or cast-coated papers.

- Avoid contact with vinyl or acetate materials, such as many notebook or report covers.

- Avoid contact with organic solvents, oils, and ammonia.

- When using a coloured marker, be sure to use one with a water-based ink. If you use a solvent-based marker, it may darken the paper.”

So like, I can watercolour just fine, but not acrylic paint them (fine by me).
The laminate is made of PET, which is polyester?
Is polyester “cast-coated”?

NERDS!
Can I use laminating film in a thermal printer to laminate thermal paper?

I don’t have either yet, but I bought a got thermal printer for printing my course forms without further HP-inflicted mental rate abscesses.
I was looking at paper so I’d be ready to print my coursework for next class and the ebay ads confused me for a second.

… also I want to print stickers. For morale!

"Photography" YouTuber really be stating a cheap camera with an integral Thermal Printer, is a great way to create 'Memory books' of candid pics, *and also replying* to everyone in the comments that Thermal Prints haven't faded in the 2 weeks he's had camera - so he's convinced that they'll be 'stable for years' has me all ..
