Homebrew PCBs

I’m finally trying to make this board!  And the frustration mounts…  
Aside from printer and tool issues (the adapter Dremel sent me for the  
model 210 drill press I spent way too much for on eBay doesn’t fit my  
tool), I think I’m making incremental progress; I just hope the final  
increment is done before I run out of supplies!

I’m having a weird issue printing from Eagle; fortunately there’s a  
workaround.  Check out the picture here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/blalor/4259310618/

When I print directly from Eagle, it looks like the pads are shifted a  
few mils (maybe even 10 or more) down and to the left; this is causing  
some of the pads to attach to the ground plane.  When I export a PDF  
and print that from Preview (I’m using OS X) the output appears to be  
perfect.

Has anyone seen this before?  I’m using an HP LaserJet 4050TN.

As an aside, the printing issues I was talking about yesterday do  
appear to be caused by the toner cartridge; I swapped in the other one  
and, although the toner’s still way too thin and uneven, the massive  
white line down the left side is gone.  The Pulsar green TRF seems to  
fill the gaps, however.  I’m going to try etching one of these  
transfers before cracking open the other printer I bought yesterday or  
paying full retail for a new toner cartridge.

Thanks,
Brian
