ive never used PNP, ive heard it sux though. i use toner transfer method with picture paper. Staples picture paper works great, that is if you staples in australia?? you might have to experiment with different kinds of paper. i use regular ol' ferric chloride for an etchant and it works great.
i haven't been able to use a laser printer to print out onto the picture paper because it never works, so what i do is print out the artwork on a regular printer, and then take it to a copy shop and copy it off a machine, it seems to work really good. i have never been able to get perfectly straight lines, they are always a tiny bit jagged, this is because the picture gets a tiny bit distorted in the print, and then copy process. i really wish i could use a laser printer.
it takes me about 1/2 hour to get a PCB. for the simplicity, the results are spectacular :lol:
