The answers are simple.
If using toner transfer with laser print, then the shiny waxy paper that printer labels come stuck on works a treat, and peels off clean without the need to soak it in water, just pop it in the fridge to cool after ironing and it will peel off cleanly.
I bought a cheap pack of envelope labels for a laser printer and pulled the labels off and used the surface the labels was stuck onto, (the shiny side) if you want to be conservative and cut the sticker paper up, then do a print on plain paper and use the labels to attach the cut paper over the printed area and reprint it on the cut paper.
Dont use stick tape through the laser printer.
Bryan1,
Well i just cant teach some people can i??
UV exposure.
Dont use transparencies for printing artwork onto as it will never print dense enough, its designed for light to pass through as a transparent image on the projector.
Use good old plain white paper, printer set to high quality, print in black only.
Now here is the trick...... wipe vegetable cooking oil over the back of the paper, and it will go translucent, wipe off any excess oil with a soft tissue (toilet paper works)
I have made 1000s of boards this way without fault.
2 things to remember.
After exposure check the board for any oil smuges and remove with a soft tissue before developing as it will slow the developing in the smuge area.
Dont keep the prints longer than a day after oiling as they dont work as well once left for sometime.
I always print a fresh one if its past 24 hours, hell plain paper is cheap.
This method also works well with bubble jet printers, if not better than lazer.
