With epson _inkjet_ transparencies i assume.
These are 'specially coated to absorb the ink, the PCB isn't.

I tried red staedtler ink in a epson head, which works very well when  
applied with a pen, but it wouldn't work very well in the printer.

that was printed before the nozzles clogged up any more.

what i know does work is tektronix phaser solid wax printers directly on  
copper. But that is a wax not a ink.
