"If printing at home with a regular colour printer ( inkjet or laser) there is no white ink. Usually the three colours cyan, magenta, yellow + black. White = empty space and takes whatever colour the printing medium is. White paper = white. A transparency = transparent."
When printing there is no white ink. When you are printing on white paper and need a white colour no ink is put on the paper. It then shows white. In other words, white is treated as transparent by the printer.
You are printing a very light colour (off-white) on transparent sticker paper. Very little ink is being put on the paper, so it shows as semi-transparent.
