Jeff,

It says that it is made for screen printing. When Mark said it had a blue
color I was worried that that might have an effect, but if it is used with
screen printing then it would be fine for us, too. I am tempted to buy a
roll, but I don't have a 24 inch printer.

Ran across this in the March issue Great Output magazine. I haven't tried
it but thought those of you that create digital negatives might be
interested.
