an individual at work printed some large format documents from a
tektronics phaser printer. (these are the wax-based ink printers for
those that don't know.) all of these documents were printed with a
small typo and due to the costs of reprinting, my department wants to
simply glue a correction to all the offending documents. so my question
and problem is:

what glue will work to attach a paper stock to the waxy printed surface
of a tektronics phaser document?

oh great glue sultans, bequeath your wisdom upon me!

thanks,

that would look SO yucky.

I doubt there are any glues that will glue to wax.
Essentially,you are trying to glue to a crayon.
Waxes are a form of lubricant,you aren't going to glue anything to them.
I suppose you could use a wax and melt it to the original base wax.
(iron-on patch ??)

also,the TEK printer division was sold to Xerox,several years ago.
(so they're now Xerox printers) ;-)

(BTW,it's TektroniX,not Tektronics)
