However, there is a way to get more than one color on the strip.
Conceivably, you could print a strip in gold, change the gold cartridge to
silver, then reprint the strip. You would then have both gold and silver on
your strip.
Q: How do I know what size strip to insert?
A: After you press PRINT, the printer will prompt you for your book’s
thickness. Simply measure how wide your book is, or count how many
sheets you’re binding. Then enter this number. The PowisPrinter™ will do
the hard work and determine the strip width suitable for your book.
