Are your highlighters edding 24 or the edding 345 inkjet - suitable?

We have tested this for laser printers and inkjet printers. Highlighters tend to achieve better results with laser printers than with inkjet-printed texts. The reason for this is the chemistry of the print: with laser printers, a paste is heated by the laser and deposited on the paper. This paste can have any properties, but does not have to be water-soluble. However, standard household inkjet printers that print on paper often print with aqueous ink via a small needle. Water-based inks can be smeared by the water-based highlighter ink. However, a drying time of several hours significantly improves the marking result.

If you use a laser printer, we do not see any problems. With inkjet printers, the combination should be tested beforehand if necessary. We would recommend the e-24 in pastel shades or the e-345 in grey, yellow, turquoise and orange.
