Did you mean "not opaque enough"?
Black is not the best color to use when using an inkjet for this. The lighter shades in a dye inkjet printer have additives to them that block UV, to slow fading.
Several have experimented with this and have found shades of green that mix just the right blend to block UV and work well.
It is easier and cheaper to get high resolution inkjet than to get high resolution Laser.
