Guía

Cómo imprimir tu plantilla de tatuaje

Ajusta medidas y efecto espejo, baja el PDF y comprueba el tamaño real en la vista previa de la impresora.

Short answer: open Printer, set the physical width, confirm the page size matches the paper in the tray, export a PDF, and print at actual size. Measure the 100 mm calibration line before you transfer.

Prepare the file

Use a finished stencil PNG from Maker, not the original photo. If lettering must read correctly on skin, mirror once in the editor or in Printer—not both.

Use the Printer tool

Tattoo Stencil Printer supports inch/cm display, aspect lock, A4, US Letter, orientation, position, and a single-page PDF. It will warn when the artwork exceeds the printable area. It will not auto-tile across pages.

Ordinary printers versus thermal units

An office inkjet can print a reference or, with the right paper system, a transfer sheet. A thermal stencil printer is a different machine and a different paper. This guide does not rank devices and does not claim every printer can produce a transferable stencil.

The 100% check

  • Turn off fit to page / shrink to printable area.
  • Confirm the dialog paper size is the same as the PDF page.
  • Measure the printed 100 mm mark. Target error on a checked combination is within 1 mm; other devices are untested.
How do I print a tattoo stencil at the correct size?

Set width and height in Printer, export a PDF, print at 100%, and measure the calibration line. Do not use fit-to-page.

Why is my print smaller than the preview?

The browser preview is not the driver. Check paper size, scale, and whether the PDF page is A4 or Letter.
