printer fault or paper issue?
opinion pleae lads...
just printed off some basic decals on a single page, consisting of red pirellli logos and some black writing.....using clear paper as its going on a white model, and using my hp inkjet printer which has always been fine for the wee simple stuff....i gave the page three coats of clear lacquer as always and allowed to dry...just ten minutes after applying decals i checked it, the red in the pirelli has run, and even more strangely, the black writing has developed a red/purple effect under it.....probabaly going to have to redo them all...wondered if this has happened to anyone else? has the lacquer not been given enough time? or has my printer thrown a leg out? is the paper crap? any comments welcome ,,, cheers lads...

You could always buy the OKI DP5000 I have up for sale on Ebay=closing tonight at 21 30. No messing about with lacquers or the ink running

I don't use it with layering and vectors-just straightforward printing so it's not above anyone's level really
