I just wipe my paper with alcohol, lay it down, then put a cap on it. I do this in my bathroom closet with jars over the caps.

you should use sterile technics.
I use the large Ziplock containers to make prints in. I have over 100 of them.
Use some kind of container!~

I usually start the print, and after 2 hours, move it to a new location considering the first spores dropped can be contaminated, and leave it their for 12 to 24 hours. Take care

My two cents I guess
Well this is how I like to do it. I like to get my foil ready like this That way when the print is done you have these flaps to fold over.
I then get a half pint jar (wide mouth) and prepare it like this. I ditch the disk and silicone in a tyvek disk. This will allow the cap to dry a little as sits in the jar. (Which causes more spores to drop and prevents the cap from rotting. Will also allow the prints to dry once the mushroom cap is removed.)
Next put in the foil and cover with the lid. Put some foil on top and pc for one hour at 15 psi.
Now uncover and wipe off and your little print chamber is ready.
Now take the jar to your mushroom chamber and loosen the top but don?t remove it.
I like to put a pin in each of the mushroom caps I?m going to print.
Cut the shroom just below the cap and put it on the foil in the jar as fast as you can. Easy to do since the jar lid is loose.
Put it in a glovebox or where you like to do your work.
In 24 hrs open up and take out the cap by the pin (now we know what the pin is for) and put the cap back on. Let it sit for 24 hrs again to let the spores dry.
Once dry fold up foil and store in a cool dry place
I hate to clean my print foil with alcohol.
