First why? Transparencies are expensive. Also it works well for stickers. I use it for photo emulsion screen printing or stencils
What you need-
Laser printer
Clear contact paper
Paper
Something to print
Scissors
What we are doing. Attaching a piece of paper to the wax paper side of contact paper so iit will feed in a printer.
Cut

Cut you contact paper into 8 1/2" x 11" so it fits in your printer.
Next cut two edges of the wax paper backing about 3/8"
Attach

Carefully align a piece of paper and stick
Done. It may wrinkle a bit on the edges from the heat. It works well.
