RE: [Homebrew_PCBs] Re: more experiments with Toner transfer by etching the boards first

I printed some text on a sheet of paper using the Brothers printer. I then deposited (in different spots) acetone, Isopropal alcohol, Methal alcohol, MEK, Naptha, and Laquer thinner. At each spot, I put a blank piece of paper and held it for about a minute. The Laquer thinner location was the only spot in which there was actually a transfer of print on to the blank paper.
I didn't perform any other test because I'm busy with other stuff right now and I'm not experienced in using the chemical transfer process. That is why I suggested that someone already doing chemical transfer (and having a Brothers printer) give this a try on PCB and tell us the results. I have no idea how well this transfer would stick to PCB for etching.
