Can anyone out there recommend a Laser Printer for toner transfer PCB creation? I have a budget of about $100 - $150. Also if anyone knows a good spot to buy cheap (not crappy) Blank PCBs i would love the info...
newegg review said:Cons: The paper feed is convoluted. Don't bother trying to print anything other that normal copy paper in this thing. If you use card stock, it has such a tight paper feed that it comes out completely curled.

Hi,
Those little Samsung printers are about the cheapest on the market over here, last time I looked at them, a new printer with new toner/drum cartridge was cheaper than a replacememt cartridge !
The 2510 has the toner cartridge and imaging drum drum in one unit.
Some other makes, like the Brothers, use separate drum and toner units, which are individually cheaper than a combine unit.
You can usually expect to use them on a ratio of 2/3 toners to 1 drum.
Is a 1200dpi printer better than 600dpi for PCBs?
I start to have problems when the line widths get to .01".
On commercial made boards I do not go below .007".
I don’t think 600 or 1200 is a big problem. Left to right my printer is very good. Top to bottom most printers are not very accurate.
I just want lots of ink.
A single example of one 1200x1200 printer not working too great is just one sample.
Thanks i have to read all of this in a minute lol
