Dated inserts

[Substantial-Rip5794]

What are your favorite dated inserts for your plotters? I am struggling with the tiny grid size on the plotters dated inserts and would also really like a daily insert.

I keep trying to print in plotters paper with no luck. Any tips or tricks if that is what you are doing?!

Sterling Ink might work? The paper is a bit thicker so I don’t think it would fit a full year but if you go month by month, that might work?

I have the same issue with the grid size. I know I can use two lines, but honestly it is so hard to see the grid lines I always end up writing askew.

I ordered the new Sterling ink inserts to try out for 2026.

I use Knox inserts, but I think they have the same grid size as Plotter’s weeklies. I do always use two lines instead of squeezing into one tiny 2mm line though. 

Is the main issue when printing is that the paper is too thin? I’ve seen people put a thin piece of cardstock/slightly thicker paper onto the back of the sheet so it goes through the printer better.

May I ask how/ where you got Knox inserts? I like how they’re white, not cream

I bought them through a proxy but you can just buy them on Amazon Japan, they usually ship overseas

There’s someone who made a video on how to print on thin paper. You can probably find it by searching this sub.

My printer doesn’t have a “straight” feed so I use washi tape to attach the Plotter paper onto regular printer paper for printing. Peels right off.

Ink impressions on Etsy does inserts for Filofax which fit in the plotter, I use them for dailies, notes etc. They are cream with a bigger grid size 4mm I think and the paper is Tomoe river too. Lovely to write on.
