I watched the 1998 #XFiles #movie on #VHS, and then I used my #thermalTypewriter to say some shit about it :)

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!

A quick morning check in with the #mastocats in black & white.

Misplaced my #toyCamera for a bit, then remembered where it was.

Here's a pic of our orange day lilies for your #ThermalPaper enjoyment.

Serendipity!
I'm sitting here intending to #thermalpaper-print some pics and trying to decide what might look nice in grainy B&W when @sk76 toots a small thread about iconic B&W photographer Ansel Adams! There's a little trove of photos he donated to the LA library in the '60s.

I'll now print and share my favourite few images! Go take a look at SK's thread and peruse the pics yourself if you like street photography. Give him a follow if you like vintage imagery.

Apropos of nothing, a little #thermalPaper print

I found a good use for the long thermal paper print out of the Poe poem, mounted somewhere for public consumption. Curious how long it will last.

I printed a few pics and wondered what it would do with a very wide aspect ratio. Would it print or truncate at some ratio like 3:2 or something?

Folks, it prints it. Yay! Now I need to see how wide it will print. Can I do a crazy long landscape print? Can I do a big long poem too, a metre long?

Okay, a bit more on the #thermalPaper printing front, in case you enjoyed my #ToyCamera tootz and pics.

I received the cheap printer ($12) I wanted to play with. It's like the toy camera, but without the camera part. You can send things from your phone - text and images. Fun.

A quick #thermalPaper pic of our kitty as she watches the birds out the window, via the #ToyCamera.

This time it's in dot-matrix print mode.

Out for a diner breakfast. Not usually up and out so early on a Saturday, but it's pretty nice and fresh outside.

Picked up a #fun thing! A kids' instant camera that prints on thermal paper.

Had seen them around and was intrigued. With some community emerging on the #Fedi I figured it was worth jumping in!
