Homebrew PCBs

Thanks DJ and others for the advice. I'm leaning toward a color printer.

Another question I should have posed in my initial posting: Some 
printers have what is referred to as a "straight through" feed. This is 
evidently a less tortuous path than the normal route of paper through 
the printer. Is the straight through feed something to be desired? 
Especially with the Press-n-Peel Blue, where I understand the paper is a 
carrier and the Press-n-Peel Blue is taped to it? I've not used either a 
straight through feed or the Press-n-Peel Blue material, advice appreciated.
