Objet: [Homebrew_PCBs] Melting temperatures of toner






Does anyone know the temperatures that different brands of toner melt at?

I managed to make transfer work with an iron, but the toner spread out a bit (doesn't help my iron doesn't have numbers printed on the dial)

Tried with a modified GBC laminator (approx 170 Degrees C) but couldn't get the toner to stick at all.

I am using a Lexmark T522 printer and I'm guessing I need a higher temperature on my laminator - but - what temperature?

Does anyone know?
