Subject: Direct Laser Printing Qustion [No Fuser?]

From: Rich Osman <lists@...>
Date: 2011-12-15

I noticed the the series of articles in the group's files section that
discussed modding a Lexmark printer to print toner on board material.
He goes through a lot of effort to remove the fuser assembly and implies
a post print bake.

This seems to be a lot of trouble so I'm reasonably confident there is a
good reason. Is it that charge retention and toner adhesion are fairly
poor and if you use the printer's fuser it smears or removes the toner
rather than fusing it?
