As many have said there's some sort of experience threshold, after which
you'll be able to make at least a well useable board each time.

A fuser is the unit with two rollers between the paper passes. One roller
is aluminum heated by a lamp, the other is rubber.
If you take this out of the printer, add a temperature controller, and a
motor, you have a great tool for fusing PCBs.
