Napkin printer

Napkins.. . For people to wipe their mouth and hands with? No. Don't
Cool art project?
I guess if I would try it, the uv flatbed. But not for food related napkins. Echo solvent would just bleed.
Latex? I've never worked with a latex printer.

Oh just thought of food printers... It's a thing. Not sure what they use. Doesn't seem very cost effective though. It's more novelty.

Suggestions on the printer?
There is a big gap between available printers to do this. Even if you only needed, say, 100 at a time - a desktop printer would take quite a while to do the job. The only other available printers are large commercial presses designed to print thousands of these. The printers are typically either pad printers or flexo printers that can handle feeding oddball sized material. Unless you want a huge investment, I would just partner with a print shop that does this every day.

I have seen the printers that use edible ink on cakes.
eco solvent on napkins would be trouble.
you can’t have a bag of peanuts on an airplane one person might/have a peanut allergy.

years ago a friend was developing food cutting boards & a supplier sent him pressure treated wood.
the pressure treating is done with arsenic
