Objet: [Homebrew_PCBs] Melting temperatures of toner 






Does anyone know the temperatures that different brands of toner melt at? 

I managed to make transfer work with an iron, but the toner spread out a bit (doesn't help my iron doesn't have numbers printed on the dial) 

Tried with a modified GBC laminator (approx 170 Degrees C) but couldn't get the toner to stick at all. 

I am using a Lexmark T522 printer and I'm guessing I need a higher temperature on my laminator - but - what temperature? 

Does anyone know?
