Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Sunlight as a UV source?

It is very rare that i have to re-do a transfer, certainly less than
5%. Even then it is not a matter of throwing out the board, just
removing the toner and repeating the transfer. The most trouble i
currently have is with the printer. It makes dark lines on the paper
and in other areas there is only light toner. Probably need to replace
the toner and drum unit, but it is so expensive i might as well get
another printer ;-)
