I am working on a decal or label as described in RodMaker Magazine Vol 9 Issue 3. I can do it on an ink jet like described in the article. However, I also have access to a very high quality color laser printer. If I printed the label on a color laser printer, would that work just as well as if it were done with an ink jet printer?

I realize that a laser printer uses fused toner instead of ink to make the image. That is what is making me wonder if it will work given that it will be coated with spray acrylic plus color preserver plus epoxy.

Thanks for the help and suggestions.
