Can you write on transparency paper with these? Will the ink smear on transparency paper?

I use these to underline words in textbooks and bible. They dry so quickly that drawing a line with a ruler you can push ruler over the line immediately and never smear. I have no experience with transparency paper, but I would guess they would not smear. They also do not bleed thru the thinnest bible pages.john

I haven't tried them on transparencies, but I'm pretty certain that they would, in fact, smear. They're great pens, but I don't think they're meant for anything other than paper.

I just got a 4 pack of these by mistake,( I ordered over head ones and got these instead), these do NOT write on overhead sheets. They smear even after sitting to dry for ten minutes. This company does make pens for overhead sheets though that I hear are fantastic, but these are different.

You can write on these using Vis'-a-Vis markers. The dry-erase markers work but smear. Best results if allowed to dry either 'air-dry' or the heat from the projector. Sorry for the delay, hope this helped.

I have never experienced smearing with these on typical papers. A glossy paper might have an issue, but as long as you are using a typical paper finish you should be good. These pens are amazing and so vibrant!

I really don't know if they would smear Or bleed through or not. But I do know that somehow these pens have changed and they are not the same quality that I got previously. I don't recommend them at this point.

Unfortunately I cannot help you there. I am using it on an inkjet. However I would think it wouldn't smear because it is a matte finish and not glossy. I would think it would smear if this paper was glossy. But unfortunatly I haven't been able to use it on a color last printer.

Normal copy paper, yes.I do not know about transparency/see through film. It may not adhere to the surface. Do note that you will get a lighter print if you print on normal copy paper as this type of ink needs to be heated and applied on a surface that has a sublimation coating applied to it, in order for the colors to "pop".

No. I think it just HAS to be transparent for best results- use transparency paper instead of tracing paper, that will work fine. :)

If you're left handed, they may smear a little bit. I'm right handed and have not had a problem with smearing unless I purposely do a smear test when the ink is freshly laid and wet before coloring with them. I hope this helps.

They are quite glossy, so you would most likely have smearing with stamp ink. Try a matte version.

The only concern is if the transparency is for ink jet or laser printers. If you are using a laser printer, be sure to get a transparency that is rated for laser printers. This is because the fuser in the laser printer will heat the transparency and toner and may MELT the transparency. For ink jet, the transparency type is also important so that it will capture the ink better. Ink jet transparencies are smooth on one side and somewhat rough on the other. The rough side is where the ink is deposited and absorbed. If you print on the wrong side, the ink will smear.

They work fine with a color laser printer. I have used them successfully in both inkjet and laser printers.

They would work, they do not smudge. We just used them on a plastic crayola art box for a birthday party.

They are just to flag or mark pages, etc. Not meant to write on. But I just tried it with a ball point pen and it didn't smear; however, there is just a very small space that is colored that you could write on. That's not its primary function. Hope this helps you.

yes, they are great for highlighting a drawing on white paper, or printing something that you want to stand out. Plus they are opaque so they cover things as well. Great pens.

What are you trying to write on? They work great on black or white paper. If they won't write on paper, send them back they must be all dried out.

They only smear if you touch them immediately after writing. By the time you write another line they usually have dried. I've never experienced them glob up, probably my favorite ink formula.
