HP Deskjet 5940 and Jetstar Premium film
2006-07-31 by leon_heller
I just made my first PCB using the HP 5940 and Jetstar Premium film,
it came out very well. As it's for an RF application I used a hatched
copper pour over most of the board with a 5 mil line width, and that
was perfect. The edges on the tracks and pads were very sharp, so I
should be able to achieve 5 mil tracks, although I'm not likely to
need to go that narrow.
It looks like this is the best low-cost combination for making PCBs at
home.
