Printing Question

If I get a colored envelop will my printer print in white?

Re: Printing Question

No... you can only print white, (as far as I know) through a screener (silk screening) your basic home printer will not print it.

Nope there is no white ink...I mean there is for big printing houses and what not... but not for home computers... Most are just CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow & black) so if you cant achieve the color mixing any combo of those 4 colors, you cant print it. WOW do I sound like a complete computer geek right now lol... going to shut up now before I make myself look even nerdy-er

Oh ... I dont know if it is in your budget is but you could probably get a calligrapher to hand print in white! I took a calligraphy class in college and the teacher did this it looked SO pretty!
