Wax Paper Backing

[AlphaDzigns]

Aloha All,

I was wondering if anyone knew of any type of large format printing roll (Make and Model) that would have a thin backing that looks like wax paper? I have a client who is looking specifically for that style of backing but my normal intermediate film rolls have a thicker more paper feel where as the one they are looking for is more thin and wax paper type. I am currently using an HP365 to print. I know that I have seen this type of material for smaller "label" printers but I was wondering if anyone had any experience with finding a large format roll with that type of backing.

Please refer to the picture attached to show the difference.

The left side is what the customer is looking for whereas the right is what we typically use now.

Any help will be greatly appreciated on where I can find this material. FYI the sizing of the roll does not matter since we can cut the sheets down ourselves with our plotter.

Thank you.

your customer sounds like a PITA if they care what the backing material is.

What are you trying to make with it? I’m guessing you’re printing labels or decals and trying to keep them on a roll?

If Avery keeps cutting corners on the SuperCast liner, that product will easily reach the thickness you're looking for!

What, exactly, are you, or they, trying to achieve?

I thought I was getting some serious Deja vu.... but some of the comments I know I read before weren't here. I found them!

Ahh, because they asked for thinner paper I reckon.
OP, if they are really keen on thinner backing, double you price, buy a roll of wax paper, and come up with the easiest way to transfer the sticker run to the wax paper.
