You just iron it or run through a laminator like with standard toner 
transfer.  It's just a coated paper so that the toner sticks to the 
coating just-enough to have a good image but once re-melted onto the 
board the toner will stick to the board a lot more strongly so you can 
peel the paper off without the usual soaking, scrubbing etc that you do 
with normal papers.  Note that reportedly Brother toners in particular 
have a higher melting point than others.
