I just found out that found out I now have access to a color laser printer. One of the perks of working at one of the largest computer and printing companies. Now I can try my hand at making my own decals. Has anybody done this and do you have any tips?

I've pronted paper "decals" for quite some time. Take the image you want and import it to a word document as clip art and resize it. Since you'll be using real decal paper, you'll want to make big sheets at a time. Remember, you'll have to do a white under decal if there is white showing, since you won't have white "ink". User the highest resolution your printer can manage to get the best detail. Use the largest master image possible. Reducing something will retain crisper detail than if you enlarge it.

Halfyank, I print decals semi-professionally since years now. On top of what AJ Lafleche said, I'd add the following:
- Try to create your art with a vector graphic program which allows you to set the size of you object sprecisely and to resize them without any quality loss
- Buy your laser decal paper at Tango Papa decals it's the cheapest and the best paper you can find around
- Create your art and print it a 300 dpi, if they are really 300 dpi the human eye cannot distinguish higher resolutions
- Always "seal" your decals with a coat of Future or transparent acryl gloss coat
I hope this can help
Ciao

Thanks for the tips guys.
