I have an HP Photosmart 8250.  I haven't made any transparencies for PCB's
but I've printed a lot for my brothers silk screening business.  They come
out extremely black and very accurate.  Our laser printers here at work
can't even come close to 1/4 the coverage we get with an inket printer and
inkjet transparencies.  I made a big mess one time by putting the
transparencies upside down.  They printed perfectly until I touched it, took
a few days to wash off.
