What are you printing on with the inkjet? Tracing paper, JetStar 
Premium, JetStar, normal OHP film or something else?

I find the Stabilo inkjet OHP film works pretty well but is a pain to 
find, and takes a bit of time to dry. I've been trying to get my mitts 
on a pack of 3M CG6000 Universal Inkjet/Laser OHP film, but %#$!ing 
Royal Mail have gone and "lost" it. Grrrr.

I've used JetStar Premium as well, but the coating seems quite thin and 
easy to scratch -- sometimes the act of removing a sheet from the pack 
is enough to scratch off a piece of the coating. The Stabilo OHP film 
doesn't seem to scratch at all, and with LaserStar the toner tends to 
scratch off long before the coating.
