Toner Transfer for artwork

[LaceSensor]

Hi,

I bought myself a cheap mon lazer for doing some PCB using press'n'peel blue and had much success.
I also use this technique for mono labelling of pedals (works on blanks as well as hammond pre made cases!)

However, does anyone know if this method will work with colour lazer prints?
Or would anyone be willing to test it for me (on a pcb material or better an enclosure)

Thanks!

color toner is very very thin; much thinner than black.  In fact it is transparent if not on a white background.  so there's 2 things working against you there.  1. it is extremely fragile  2.  if you apply it to a different color background it will look completely different.

it's doubtful you'll have success with it unless you use that pulsar transfer system, where you can bind white pigment to the backside so the color remains the same.  and even with their clean releasing paper it is extremely fragile.

i'll be interested to see the results if anyone tries it out, of course.

no prob dude.  if you try, definitely go onto a white box or very light gray.
