Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] CNC drill holes and laser printer output

Does the widening only happen near the side of the paper that feeds in?

I'd be curious if you got better results by moving the pattern to the bottom
edge of the page, so the paper has plenty of time to be fully engaged in the
transfer roller before your pattern is printed.
