Inkjet PCB

2005-06-07 by joerytech

I'm new with PCB making and to be honist, I did not read all the mess. 
here

Is it possible to transfer inkjet ink to a PCB? or are there other 
methodes without a laserjet printer?

I don't have a laserjet printer and would like to know other methodes 
to transfer the image to the PCB.

You could copy the inkjet image with a copy machine, it uses toner too.

Alternatively, there are many methods to transfer the layout. Most popular  
would be with photosensitive laquer on the PCB, which you expose through  
the artwork on a OHP transparency, and then develop. Look in the links  
section if you find any guides.
