Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] RE: Color laser printers for toner transfer

From: Brian Symons <brians@...>

I recently bought a colour laser.  I found that it can't handle any thick material at all because of the way the paper path & several passes works.
That info was buried in the manual & not on the brochures.
It does do nice colour on plain paer though.

I must add that although I have had several lasers, I needed tech assistance to set this one up. 
The problem was that control panel settings on the printer will over ride the settings from the computer regardless of what you put in the driver settings.

My printer is a Lanier (Ricoh) SP C240DN / Aficio SP C240DN  -  Same printer different names.

It ws a cheapy on special to see what a colour laser could do because none of our printer suppliers shows print samples any more.

Regards,
Brian
