Well, laser printers use a lot of heat to seal the ink to the paper. If you put a non-laser compatible plastic through it (e.g. an ink-jet plastic paper) you risk trashing the printer.MilitantMedic:
I learnt this the hard way - though fortunately with a cheap, secondhand printer.

National Geographic sells something called "Adventure Paper". It's not only waterproof but it's hard to tear.

I was thinking of a way to print out short stories or something to read on deco

Actually, I think you have to pay me for the idea.

So does anyone have feedback/experience on how well this stuff works for scuba? I have a laser printer and have tried to print stuff for diving. While it doesn't wash off or fade like ink jet, it does flake off if the page is folded or creased. Putting lamination over it fixed that. But that's more work than just printing. Be curious to hear about ink jet on waterproof paper underwater.
