Hi Steve,
I beg to disagree with you! Sorry! I went to  show in  April. There was a 
company there that had a modified Epson printer running a  large dye sub 
conversion. They were able to print pictures and graphics on "ANY  SURFACE". 
Technology changes at light speed these days. To prove their point  they were printing 
their logo on aluminum sided coffee mugs. I asked about doing  PCB's and they 
said they were working with someone to come out with a stand  alone unit to 
print directly on PCB's. They said it should be available to the  general public 
by late spring. When I get the announcement I will post it  here!
