You could try a paper meant for the job, just takes a while to arrive,but is not expensive see:

       Here’s a weird one.  You guys saw my successful
 transfer image – with two of the four boards required to
 build a TV Typewriter shown.  Those print perfectly onto
 magazine paper via my Laserjet 4250.  But for some reason,
 the motherboard won’t.  The motherboard is twice the size
 of the other boards and it has relatively large black traces
 that span long distances.  For reasons I can’t figure
 out, when I print it to the magazine paper, it comes out
 with some traces faded.. ie. not enough toner.  Usually
 around the same spot.  Yet if I print it with regular
 paper.. it’s fine.  Not sure what the remedy would be
 here but I’m open to suggestions.  Not being able to
 print the mainboard is a bit of a problem.  Brad
