Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Re: Laser toner on Silicone sheet??

From: James Bishop <bishopaj@...>

I've tried the silicone baking paper without success - basically the
toner didn't stick to the paper very well and came out all messy. Also
my printer (samsung ML2010) choked on it, I think it didnt have enough
grip to feed the paper. I tried taping the baking paper to a carrier
sheet, but tape won't stick to the baking paper either!

But I still think it could be used, perhaps in a printer with a
straight paper path? The toner might stay in place if it doesn't get
disturbed too much... And I think it would require some sort of
carrier paper, but I really couldnt think of a good way to attach it.

James.
