Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Any new developments with Direct Laser Printing (DLP)?

From: Mark Lerman <mlerman@...>
Date: 2014-04-21

The thing that seems to work best is disconnecting the transfer
voltage from the transfer roller and then grounding the surface of
the pcb. This can be done with a thin wire or conductive copper tape
(make sure it has conductive adhesive) from the pcb to the carrier,
then a thin wire from the carrier to ground.

Have you tried that?
