Having troubles getting thick picture paper through that old stubborn laserwriter, so I thought, why not try and transfer a PCB layout from plain copier paper. Remeber, this paper as a shiny side and a softer side and you should always use the former to prevent the ink from running out.

You know I recommended picture paper of various kinds in other entries (see left for the links), forget it!

Tried a small portoin and when that seemed to work well, I just went for the rather larger Maestro Sample and Hold Filter layout by moosapotamus.

The procedure is the same as with picture paper, but it seems the punching of holes is not necessary.



Here are some pictures of te Maestro board:


cutout, clean board



iron on. use the higest setting on your iron and don't be affraid of overheating anything




soak in warm water (not cooking)


fix toner by adding cold tap water




the toner is sticking!




gently rub from center to sides using your thumbs to remove the excess paper




transfer done, paper removed




etching as usual, see my previous entries on the subject




etching done
