I posted this a while back relative to toner adhesion and cleaning boards,
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/Homebrew_PCBs/message/26984It did not create much interest. However, it is the method I now use and I don't bother with cleaning boards.
N.B. I use HP Presentation Paper Q2546A

I lined them up and taped them to the PCB, and fed the sandwich through the laminator many times, but the toner stayed firmly stuck to the paper with not the slightest hint of sticking to the PCB. The toner is standard HP 4127X, and the laminator is set to its highest setting of about 170 degrees Celsius (just under 340F).
