I've recently gotten my new Imagewriter II and found that using
CricketGraph and ColorMate, the colored printouts are striking.  I would
REALLY like to be able to print these colored images on transparancy
material to use on overhead projectors, but my attempts on 3 types of
plastic stock in-house failed.  The ink apparently didn't dry quickly
enough and so was smeared horizontally by the movement of the printhead.

The colors, however, ARE transparent, and if they dried quickly enough would
make beautiful overheads!

Does any know of an appropriate transparant stock which will take this ink
(Apple color ribbon) or possibly a special ribbon which has fast-drying ink?

Thanks,

Jeff
