There used to be some laser printers that used "fuser oil" (silicone oil) in
the fuser unit.
If someone ever tries to use one of those he would probably not get adhesion
either.
Now i'm not saying you have such a printer - just one more option to check.
Basically there are just 4 possible reasons:
Contamination on toner surface.
Contamination on board surface.
Not enough heat.
No contact between toner and board during heating (unlikely).
6 minutes is plenty long.
Even with the wrong paper you should still get the same adhesion to the
copper, only the paper won't come off.
