Does the ink work over plastic, such as tape or lamination?

I tried it over tape and the print is too faint and smears. The ink needs to be absorbed by a porous surface such as paper, where it works quite well.

The only time this ever happened to me, I changed the tape cartridge. Be sure the paper cartridge is kept in a cool, dry area before you load it... I suspect high humidity may reduce the paper adherence to the ink.

The technology employed in the LetraTag labeler is not ink, but a thermal printing system, similar to thermal fax or cash register receipt printing. It's possible that the tape and or printing unit was exposed to extreme hot or cold temperatures at some point. Make sure that the tape and labels produced are not being used under conditions that are unusually cold or warm. Also, make sure your batteries are fresh, as it is the battery power which produces the heat in the unit which prints the labels.

I have used mod podge spray sealer on printer paper and laserjet printing with no problems. Just make sure your ink is completely dry before sealing!

I don't think it would work.. It's hard plastic and I don't think it will hold the ink well

Figure you could try it on a scrap, but if it were me, I would use Stazon (hope I'm spelling this right) brand ink pads... that stuff stamps on ANYTHING!

I would think screen printing. The ink would probably scratch off. I put vinyl stickers on mine and they work awesome!

Yes, it does work on plastic bags. I stamp some periodicals we received wrapped (in plastic bags). You DO HAVE TO LET IT DRY.Good luck.

This printer does not use liquid ink, but rather a solid coating on a plastic film carrier. There's nothing to dry out, so your supplies should be good for quite a long time.

I'm assuming so but I used a laser jet printer. They weren't laminated they are card stock so a pen should be just fine.

This is a metallic topped paper. The silver is bonded to white paper backing. I don't see how it would work with a laminator.

I always spray my prints with Acrylic finishing spray or cover them with a waterproof laminate page - also be sure you check your page settings on your printer which controls amount of ink being used for each type of paper.

No, it does not. The DTC1000 is not a laminating printer. To laminate you must look at the DTC4500e model.

I use these labels top reprice items and apply over an existing bar code. I can't say what the results might be with a roto-molded plastic bottle as there might be some type of lubricant in the plastic which would cause the adhesion to fail. They stick very well on cardboard and paper, yet release without tearing the surface it was stuck to. For $12 bucks you can just try it out!

Yes the ink from Inktoneram works great over high priced OEM inks from Epson. Save a whole lot of money.

Yes, shouldn't be a problem - I used black ink, but didn't notice any issues with the paper being too slick or anything.

I have not tried it in years, but in the 80s I used to use clear nail polish over some of my printing to keep it. Some inks ran, others did not. Have not tried it with the current inks. Just might try it. Also they put glare free glass over drawings so the light would not fade it so maybe a flat finger nail polish might work better than a high gloss...don't have any idea, just thinking. hope it helps.
