- The paper can be used in laser printers, inkjet printers and copiers. Use the manual feeder and feed one sheet at a time, short edge first.
- On a copier: choose the setting for transparencies, not for thick paper.

- Drawing by hand: 2B pencil, charcoal or a black pigment or permanent marker. Ballpoint pens and ordinary markers do not work.
- Use patterns instead of large black areas – it gives a nicer surface.
