has anyone this model at home?
may it somebody inspect for pcb printing possibilities?

i would get it for little eur but i don't want to get it only to discover it is not useful vor converting
to pcb printer.


if anyone has it, please have a look at the paper transport path, how it is driven, if it is possible to
feed flat materialy through, which thickness is possible (maybe with moving some axes).

i have no idea how it is constructed, only knew it was cheap.

i guess it takes the paper from the front, spitting it out backwards.

how is the paper transported? are the rollers which apply the momentum under the paper?


i think if anyone here has this printer he would be much more able to asess if it is worth a try than any
ebay seller because you can imagine the application.


thanks
stefan
