Good luck on that.

Didn't look at this, but that's ok.

Which you can do.

You have a real problem with the white lettering.? The problem is that
inkjet printers (and laser printers) rely on the white paper to
produce the white in the print.?

Combined (using C, M, Y, and K) where C = cyan, M = magenta Y =
yellow, and K = black), you get a reasonable range of colors, this is
the subtractive color palette, not the additive (light sources) one.

So no, you can't get white out of this.? if you (had) to do white, you
would have to do silk screen, or white wax, or white ink.? No printers
that I know of will do this for you.?

Silk screen is a stencil that produces whatever color the ink used
happens to be.? I know of no printer that uses white wax (there might
be some).? White ink needs a stencil to make it work.? That's a
photostencil at this resolution and size.

Now, if you were willing to use another color, say green, blue, or
something other than white, you could print this on something like
Pulsar paper, making a decal, and then transfer it that way.
