Phil, I meant: is SMD PCB possible using that staple paper #471861 AND Tone Transfer. If you are using something else, can you tell us what paper and printer...
... DEFINITELY! SMD 1206 to 0603 is no problem, so are standard SMD ICs. the smaller flatpacks are a problem with 300DPI printers but are surely possible with...
... Hi Mike, I have a T-Tech machine and would sell it in a minute if there was a better way to drill. The toner transfer and optiocal (ultaraviolet?) both...

... How many dpi must the printer be able to handle for 10mil tracks ? I tried to print out a 600dpi bitmap and even a1200dpi image of my board at the public...
... You got the problem, the metric spacing and the DPI don't work together at all. I have only 300DPI and it is not enough, i hoped 600 would be OK. Would be...
... A cheap old epson stylus 400 colour will do 8mil tracks/spacing smoothly in 600x720dpi mode. It's the printer technology and ink/transparency combination ...
... You don't understand the problem. Even a 300dpi unit can do traces of 7 mil but _not_ metric spaced smd parts. the printer works in inches and if you print...
Great answers, thanks Stefan and Dave... So T-tech is great for... drilling, if one can print it, one can etch it. But what about the 'blackness'? How...
I'm not so sure that a 7 mil trace is going to come out that well on a 300 dpi device. that is basically 2 dots wide (2.1 to be exact but it doesn't do...
... yes, correct, IF you draw the lines on a grid in mil. if yo have metric grid (e.g. metric spaced flatpack) the driver must convert it, and will make...
My point is that the driver has to convert it to the dot grid - there are always conversions taking place. You will almost never have an exact number of dots...
... you need evidence? i can provide scans. If you look through a engligh resolution grid on a metric picture you will get unevenly spaced and unevenly wide...
OK, Stefan, I got the message, sorry for overlooking teh rules.. This time, for a change, WILL BE about Mr Gootee and his suggestion. I just made a trial and I...

After reading the write up on Staples Picture paper SKU # 471861 for toner transfer, I decided to give it a try on my next boards. I've had success with a GBC...

Mike, The Staples Picture paper comes off easily. I let it soak in hot soapy water for about 10 minutes. This paper is NOT like a film that peels off, rather...
Thank you for commenting specially on the Laser III and how to soak it. I did another try last night and can tell that it works really well. I got a 100%...
