Does this printer print on transparencies? null

Yes and No. I tried to print on a sheet of vellum (semi-transparent paper). It wouldn't print from either then paper tray or rear-paper feeder. But, I found a way to do it. You need to adhere a sheet of standard copy paper to it. This will "fool" the printer into thinking it's printing onto a standard sheet of paper. I was able to use the rear paper feeder with this configuration. In the end you will get a print out on the clear paper. Note, you'll have to remove it from the adhered sheet after printing to it, so choose your adhering method wisely. I used a small piece of scotch tape. Also, I would make sure that the transparent paper is compliant with inkjet printers.

Yes it does a great job on transparencies!

Yes it can. I use double sided skinny tape at one end of plain typing paper. Then attach the vellum to it making sure it lines up. Change printer settings to plain paper and print. It works!
