Those rulers are great! I had a wonderful old wooden one for a long time... I think my mom stole it from me. (I may or may not have stolen it from her first.)

This metal one is from a woodworking Combination Square. Essentially a ruler inside of a sliding 45* angle for making nice angles and cuts ...

Yeah, Inkjet benefits are definitely color reproduction (although sometimes they can come out MUCH darker than intended) and I think you can get much larger print areas, like with the big photo printers.

Though if you are buying $5 printers from goodwill as I do, theres a great chance that the ...

Ooooh fantastic ideas all around.

First, a game could have some charts or options for 'resolutions when there wasn't a resolution'.

Elle I think this is like, exactly what I was getting at!! I don't think we should penalize people for schedule conflicts or anything, those are GOING to happen, we ...

From someone who has only ever used Ink-jet, what are the benefits you find from using toner printers?

We have our Booklet printed. Take the whole stack, even them out nice, and fold them over in half, all at once. You can do ...

Today we are printing a zine, from a PDF!

I've found one of my biggest problems with printing zines, specifically games I have found on Itch.io that don't offer physical copies, is getting them into a "printable state"

This state, is a Booklet file!

All a booklet file is, is an organization of ...

Great tips! Thanks for the post.

Some tidbits I will add on that always confused me;

As Twopercentwilk mentioned above, some printers are "duplex" printers and some are single sided only. Nowadays, most printer scanner combos are Duplex printers. (you can tell because they are more of a cube than ...

Eyy! Yeah looks like you have to upload and "place inline"
