All i meant was instead of using press n peel paper i use a sheet of paper from the maplin electronics catalogue. Its very thin and the toner does not stick to it after you have ironed it onto the board. it just peels off. No different to the way press n peel works.

still as with press n peel i still get problems. like today when i have tried to do a board three times now and always there is some little error that keeps bugging me.

I'm looking now for a better way to do these boards. press n peel method is hard work to get right. thinking of getting kitted out for UV now.

Hello Gary and Chris,

Sorry for this if should be a dummy question:

Did you you mean that NO intermediate scanning+ toner
printing is done before doing transfer from magazine
image ?

Hope your explanations as didn't fully understood it,
probably as never saw a Maplin printed catalogue.

Greets,

Samuel

Gary,

I too have tried various catalogs and magazines -
often with good
success. The only "Catch" I have experienced is when
the ink on the page transfers to the PCB along with
the toner. Turns out that the
ink is also etch resistant which of course creates
some problems.
Now if we could only convince the magazine and/or
catalog printers
to leave some blank pages for us, that would be super
duper!

Chris
