Subject: RE: [Homebrew_PCBs] Toner Transfer Paper

From: "Mark Mickelsen" <mark.mickelsen@...>
Date: 2006-04-28

I tried the Epson glossy photo paper with my ML-2010 printer. It takes the
printed image beautifully but the toner doesn't transfer to the copper very
well. I put a piece of paper towel over it so that the iron wouldn't stick
and then heated it several minutes with the iron. I let it cool and then
soaked it in hot water and about half of the traces didn't stick to the
copper. I had scoured the board with a Scotchbrite pad and then rubbed it
thoroughly with acetone. Should I have done something else to prepare the
board? Can anyone see anything that I did wrong? What procedure do you
follow to make the Epson paper "work like a charm"?
