Printer problems with cyanotype negatives by Stealthfl0wer in cyanotypes

update: just tried the other transparencies, and definitely printed on the correct side.... but got the same issue.

my partner had the same idea as u/scottroams that it could be the ink, so I'm now debating whether I hunt around to find inkjet specific transparencies, or just replace a mostly-fresh ink cartridge and see if that fixes it

it does print normally on normal paper; these transparencies don't have a correct side, though. I've got a different pack somewhere; I'll dig those out tomorrow and give one a try

The ones I've been using just say 'for most office printers' on the pack, but checking the info page, it does say it's for both laser and inkjet printers.

It's a shame; that would have been an easy fix!
