Ok, thanks for the replies.
Yesterday I was hit by an epiphany!
To all those brits on these forums, that have had limited luck with toner transfer, I have the answer!
No more blood, sweat and tears!
Heres my setup:
Brother Ml2030 LASER
Argos catalogue paper (FREE and widely available!)
Sainsburys cotton makeup removal pads (Free also, from the girlfriend!)
one A4 backing sheet.
sticky tape.
pure Acetone (not nail varnish remover).
Fine grit sandpaper.
Cheap iron.
Method:
1)Cut a sheet of argos paper out of the catalogue.
2)Stick it to a sheet of plain A4 using two strips of tape. (To stop it jamming the printer) Print your design onto this.
3)Clean board thoroughly with sandpaper, then acetone. (Nail varnish remover leaves loads of other chemicals behind, so only use pure acetone).
4)Put cotton pad on a hard surface and put the pcb onto the pad. (this pad will spread the weight when we start ironing.)
5)Cut out the bit of printed argos paper from its A4 backing sheet.
6) position this on the copper.
7) put another bit of A4 over this, and Iron. I only ironed for about 1 minute using this method.
8)take this to some water, and submerse.
9) after about a minute, if you rub the paper in a circular fashion lightly, the shitty quality argos paper just falls off!
I have never achieved such consistant results from toner transfer before, and the best part is, the paper is completely free!
