I'd like to know how you get on with PnP,   not tried it myself but I  
have a 2600n also and it doesn't play too nice with lazertran ( I  
found the expensive way) and several over plastic like papers I was  
trying for panels. The 2600n is of one of the newer breeds of lasers  
with much higher bonding temperature, so would be handy to know if  
PnP works ok.

Hopefully I can pick up a cheap old mono laser someday for  
lazertran,  In the meantime Im eager to learn a bit of screen  
printing for panel work.
Seems plenty of useful tutorial videos on you-tube for that btw..
