I found a site that has me inspired to get an edible image printer. Only I have no idea how to replicate these types of designs. The site is Gumdropcookieshop dot com. It looks like I'll need some type of design software, but all of that is very foreign to me, having never tried my hand at it??????

Any help????? These cookies are divine.

You could use photoshop and create your own design.

When using edible images exactly how do they work when applied to royal icing and/or fondant??? Is there anything special that you have to do when applying them as opposed to when used with buttercream on a cake?

I use glace. I let the icing dry for 18-24 hours and then I use vodka or tequila to brush the dry icing and then I applied my images. I let them dry another 18 hours (about) before packaging..

I agree with Verono you need to use a graphics program no point in getting a printer if you don't know how to format images, if you use royal icing you can apply directly on the wet icing let dry over night and package.
