Laser Printer For PCB

[3v0]

I do not know if you have settled on a printer. You can call or email pulsar and they will be glad to help you select on that will work. Better to do so prior to the purchase

I emailed them now to wait and see what they say

test out the 2 sheets of blue press n peel i own.


I used to use this stuff, very expensive, and could be difficult to get consistent adhesion when ironing onto the copper board.

Followed this forums earlier PCB threads about using a printed page from a glossy magazine to laser print to - it really works - good image quality and so much more tolerant when ironing onto the copper board.

Contrary to the previous comment about Brother printers not working - well I've used 2 HL2030s over 4 years without any problems - got two as when I needed to replace the toner and drum, it was cheaper to buy a complete new unit in the new year sales, than the replacement cartridges!

Hi again,

The Brother printer issue is related to the more recent models.
I guess it could also vary from model to model though, but i
wouldnt buy this brand again. Dont get me wrong, for standard
laser printing of text it works great, but it doesnt work at all
for PNP transfer paper. It has high resolution too.
