I've not done it, but I believe the best approach would be to tape your rice
paper onto a leader: a piece of paper which does easily feed through the
printer. You might need to create a custom paper size in the page setup
window to get your image to print squarely where you want the on the rice
paper.

I bet your transfer print looked cool though!
