Subject: [Homebrew_PCBs] direct inkjet PCBs

From: "Thomas" <teecee@...>
Date: 2007-01-24

all excited I headed off to hunt down some sample's of Magenta ink that are compatible with Durabrite inks from the trusty ol refil shops we have here.
Got home and out with the blank pcb and dabbed a few lines on it (couldn't wait), baked it to around 220 C and it seems to have a sorta waxy or rubbery feel to it when you rub at the dried Ink however it still appears vulnerable ... the etching part seemed to eat away at the baked Ink in places but it worked. I think with a few refinements this ink from Oliser may be a goer however I'm still looking for something better.

My old S200SPX Canon printer just got its Black ink tank cut open and flushed and resealed it with Hot glue and filled it with the Oliser brand replacement ink for Durabrite, I've now just printed the test page and I reckon it prints better than ever... just hope the nozzle does not dry out.

Now I need to modify the printer so as it will accept the PCB.

drink to that
