Printing guide

Four small things that make a printed sheet much nicer to colour.

Paper matters most

160gsm cardstock stops markers bleeding through. Plain copier paper is fine for pencils and crayons.

Print at 100%

Turn off 'fit to page' and 'shrink oversized pages' so the outlines stay thick and easy to stay inside.

Use black & white mode

The sheets are pure line art, so greyscale printing saves colour ink and gives sharper lines.

Laminate the favourites

Laminate a sheet and use dry-wipe markers — the same drawing can be coloured again and again.
