Wow, thats pretty impressive. The IIIp served me well, and I upgraded
supposedly to a 4 and it was absolutely terrible alignment wise, so I went
back to the IIIp. The 5 is a much better printer, and I'm glad they fixed
the alignment issues!!!

I've never used tracing paper before, I bought 50 sheets of Great White
Transparency material before Walmart stopped carrying it. When I run out,
I'll need to investigate the tracing paper. Besides that, it has to be less
money than transparency film.
