Subject: RE: [Homebrew_PCBs] First attempt at toner transfer

It may be your toner. The MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) says your toner is Polyester Resin based. Look up your toner cartridge on this Web site.

I use an HP P1606 that works fine. The toner is Styrene Acrylate Copolymer based.


I've found the Polyester Resin toners don't work very well.

When I look for a printer for Toner Transfer, I take some Glossy Laser paper to Staples or Office Depot and have a demo page printed. I take this home and transfer a small sample to a PCB to see which printers work and which printers don't.
