hmm the problem is that i'm quite far away from the next wally world (several 10000 km i guess), living
in austria. but i will have a look if this particular paper is available here and if not i will buy some
different papers.. but isn't photopaper for inkjet printers? or is this laser photopaper (i don't assume
any laser capable of photo quality)?
i have cleaned the board with alcohol, as it was quite new i guessed this would be enough. next time i
may give it a rub with steel wool and see if it gets better.
regards
