Yet ANOTHER Toner Transfer Paper Suggestion
"Paper" that dissolves in water! (actually I think it is some sort of
starch based stuff with binding fibers.) This stuff is intended to be
used for printing Cross-Stitch or Embroidery patterns that get pined
to fabric and then stitched thru and the pattern gets washed away.
But guess what? It goes thru my HP LaserJet 4V AND holds toner
without any problems and does in fact dissolve in water after being
run thru a Xerox Laminator.
(∗∗ thanks for the tipoff on the Staples rebate).
No more fighting to get paper out of component holes when doing TT.
No more peeling multiple layers of paper & taking traces with it.
Clean under a light stream or spray of water with a soft tooth brush
and diluted dishwashing soap, lightly scrubbing in a circular motion
until the "goo" is gone.
