I used rice paper run through the laser printer. First, I printed the image on a normal sheet of 8.5"x11" paper, then I scotch-taped a piece of rice paper over the image, with the tape only on the leading edge that feeds into the printer. I printed onto the sheet a 2nd time manual feed, this time onto the rice paper. Worked great with no jams.
