I learned how to use the laser printer to make stencils! It's surprisingly really easy; I just drew out the shapes I wanted and colored them in with a sharpie, and then you put them in the printer and it scans them. Then it uploads the scan onto the computer and you can re-position the image and highlight any negative space the scan missed, and then laser print it onto a piece of transparent paper. It all happens in the same place, the scanning and the printing! The stencils I made aren't super clean and smooth, so there are still some shaky edges that become apparent when outlining with sharpie, but they still helps me space things out evenly on the page so I'm glad I made them. Coach also said the printer could be used to burn into wood, which I think would be a super cool way to elevate pen and ink drawings, so I'm going to keep that in mind for future projects.
