Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] C88 direct inkjet printing

I lifted the rollers up along with the print head. I cut the frame a little differently from you
so my rollers went up 1/8 along with the head. I did have to wire them on as they are now to high
for the pressure roller to hold them in place. I'm using a piece of fiberglass perf board for the
moment as a carrier. I tape a piece of thin cardboard to it, do a print of the board, lay my board
in the correct spot and then cut the cardboard out. Now I have a perfectly shaped cutout to hold
the board without tape. This will allow me to position the board exactly in the same spot when I
do the solder mask and top component printing. This will also help when I do double sided boards.
