Homebrew PCBs

First test results:


Konica/Minolta PagePro 1350W laser printer
GBC laminator H300
Chef's Select parchement paper


Printing to ordinary paper:
- no missing pixels.
- black is ok for documents.

Printing to parchment paper:
- a few missing pixels, bad for thin traces.
- black is not as dense as on regular paper.

Laminating:
- 1st pass 50% pattern adhesion.
- 2nd pass 40% adhesion.
- missing more than just a few pixels, trace quality unacceptable.


I am getting a HP LaserJet 2100 tomorrow, a HP LaserJet 4V 11"x17" in a few
days and maybe a HP LaserJet 4000.  Will post results asap.

Will also search for other brands of parchment paper.  It's possible that
the quality varies between manufacturers.
