The edges will also smooth out a little. How much i can not say.
Definitely they won't be dead straight but then the electrons don't
seem to mind.
You'll likely need different paper. Plain paper does not work very
well, the fibers are on the surface and the toner adheres very well to
them.
Instead you need to use (inkjet) photo paper which has a clay coating,
or even a gel like coating. It will release the toner better.
The clay coated (non-gloss) paper is a safe bet and will work, but i
find the glossy surface "gel" paper produces better quality results.
Some glossy papers however do not work at all so it is a risk.

I was wondering if I was just getting to a practical limit of the toner or if my settings might need tuning. I mean, 4mil and 6mil are very small anyway. I do not even need them right now but boundaries are there to be pushed and it interests me to see what can be achieved and what can be achieved reliably.

I have some toner tranfer paper bought from Pulsar but do not want to waste too much of it at this stage. i did print a little on that and it seemed to look very similar to that of plain paper.
