Cruised a bit through this website.. check this out:
http://www.tprtoner.com/products_info/Factory-direct-sell-for-Samsung-white-toner-ML1610-334159.html
The ML-1610 is an older mono black laser printer --- I wonder how accurate this site is. That would be really awesome if you could sub this white toner in! Which makes me wonder if there’s a remanner out there already doing it..

Subject: [Homebrew_PCBs] White toner for silkscreening
Just running this over in my head and wondering what pitfalls there would be. As you probably know, there are a couple of commercial laser printers out that that have white toner available. OKIData sells one. Unfortunately as the classification implies, commercial means $$$ and those printers are $3000+. But I’m wondering, given that you can buy the white toner powder online (I’ve checked).. what’s to stop you from simply refilling a spent black toner cart with white, and then doing your transfers for silkscreen with that? Would the printer care?
Obviously you’d have to match the ‘type’ of toner to a printer that uses the same type. Maybe even just get a second hand mono OkiData for cheap.
I’m thinking if this could work, you wouldn’t even have to do anything special to your silkscreen artwork.. you just print it ‘as black’ and it comes out white.
But I’m sure it’s not this easy.
Thoughts?
