Homebrew PCBs

My apologies Alan about answering on the wrong printer.  I tried to delete my message minutes after I sent it.  Not sure how it still got through.

  Different subject line, different printer being discussed..

  Answer is yes, almost any amount of wax will work fine as long as it 
is filled.  Just like toner it's nearly inert, if Sharpie residue can 
stand up almost anything else will have a greater thickness.  I've got 
ribbons and have done tests, works fine.  I'd imagine the printer 
mentioned would work as long as it can handle the board thickness, after 
cutting it to clear the output path as the OP mentioned..
