Any more info for on these printers? What is max size of PCB? I'd be ready to order one in the $50 to $100 range.
Thanks for any help,

You can feed thin stock directly through an unmodified printer and move directly to Adam's CuCl2 etching bath. No extra surface cleaning required. No laminator is needed. And best of all no touch up of the traces is usually needed. The printers are available on the surplus market for $50 - $100.
