The problem simply is: Not every laser does the job. I bought a 
Brother Laser, and I have special matte transparencies that seem to 
work excellent on the larger LaserJet models, However, they do not 
work on this particular model. Like inkjet, results depend on the 
printer, toner, and transparency combination. For this printer, I 
haven't found any suitable transparency.

But even the best Laserjet prints on this matte transparency is not 
as black as the inkjet printout on this full transparent media.
