Update on the Hammermill Color Laser Gloss paper. Total failure. Difficult to transfer with the laminator. I think the paper thickness also has something to do with it, as it got air bubbles from the heat while going though the laminator, while the HP laser photo paper is heavier and doesn't bubble. However, that doesn't explain why the transfer refused to stick (You would think that toner from the exact same machine would stick the same) and the ones that did transfer, rubbed off with the scrubby sponge. Just to prove it wasn't a fluke I tried another one made on the HP laser photo paper and it worked perfectly. It's as if different types of paper give the toner completely different chemical properties. Toner doesn't get 'absorbed', so I'm not sure why this would happen.
