Mark,
Are you still doing "direct laser printing"? If so, how is it working or not working for you? Sorry for the hijack people. If you have an update elsewhere in this forum please link. Thank you.
I am using a Dell_1610 laserjet with the TTP (toner transfer paper) from Pulsar. Great results removing toner with Acetone on paper towel. The Xylene was too powerful for me, it made it like ink water. Also had to go out to the garage to use it.
