No I do not know of color copiers which can do acetate sheets. Where I
use to work they had a Kodak (I think) that would do black and white
acetate copies. I thought just about any copier would make overheads.....

Tektronix makes color printers that will print on just about any thing,
even tissue paper if I remember correctly. You wouldn't want to buy a
Tek printer just for the purpose of making charts due to the cost.

Maybe the technology hasn't made it to Astoria Dave? Or maybe it's all
that salt in the air down your way that would rot the acetate copiers.
