now enclosure etching seems fun along with pcbs

but i dont have a laser printer (gey)
and press and peel only works with lasers

an alternatives i could use?

Photocopy shit onto magazine paper.

i dont have access to a photocopier either


bummer

i heard someone used inkjet photo paper

Can you find a suitable printer at a local library or kinkos or some shit?


Do they even have those in Australia? Who knows?

Maybe you.

haha im in the crowd

i think ill have to buy a laser printer at some point im too broke right now anyway

You don't have access to a copier? Do you live in the outback or something?

Surely one of the kangaroos will let you use their copier.

Yes, you can use inkjet photo paper....as its just gloss paper.

But you still have to print onto it with a laser jet or photocopyer as its the carbon powder that you need.

u kids

Ink from a jet printer wont transfer with heat, unlike carbon powered from the laser-jet.

But most ink-jet inks are still etch resistant.....so you could rig up an old inkjet to print directly onto the enclosure/PCB .....but you cant use the transfer method.

( laser-jet are only about £40 on ebay.....and well worth it if you want to print your own PCB or enclosures)

Can't you just buy a marker start drawing or something?

Or send the files to someone with a magazine & laser-jet?

Hell Email me and i will print you the buggers off and send them over to you!
