ok i'm sorry, i know this has been asked before but i'm about to stencil a design onto a bag and i was wondering if running freezer paper through my laserjet printer will absolutely kill it.  the reason i can't just go by what everyone else has said is because i ran book cover (plastic one side/paper on other) (contact paper? http://img59.echo.cx/img59/2250/paper1cq.jpg) through it with the plasticy sticker side still on and printed directly on the plastic.  The plastic didn't melt at all...the only problem was the ink was streaked down the page.  If that plastic was able to withstand the heat, will freezer paper?

sorry i posted this here...i followed a link and didn't notice it was for quilting

You've got to figure out which side needs to be facing up. I know on my printer, the plasticy side needs to be up. I would recommend printing something on a regular piece of paper first, but mark the side facing up first. Then if it has printed on the side with the mark, you need to put the plasticy side down. If it has printed on the other side, put the plastic side up.
