I make my own PCBs by a 'photo' process, which involves printing a
transparency from the PCB artwork I've created. Just plain black/clear.
This used to work perfectly when I first did it in the '90s. Using an
Epson Stylus printer - long since gone. The next printer - a Canon - was
just about OK, but that's gone now too.
I've now got an Epson XP-415 which simply doesn't print a dense enough
black - despite playing with all the settings.
I've kept some of those old transparencies from the older printers, and
you can clearly see the difference holding them up to the light.
I've also got a cheap mono laser printer - and that if anything is worse.
Can anyone recommend a printer I can buy new and they know will work
properly for this task?
