I actually tried that but it would get to expensive because I had to use bank transfer.

Save your money - get the cheap inkjet glossy photo paper (190gsm) from Staples. Works brilliantly.

Where in Europe are you? I offer P'N'P for $2.00 U.S. per sheet/5 sheets for $9.00. If you have a PayPal account, no problem.

Glossy photopaper WILL work extremely well, and much cheaper than PnP, although it has limitations.  Cheap photo paper can work, but the best transfer would take place with the glossiest paper.  Although it doesn't really matter whether you use paper designed for laser OR inkjet ("inkjet" paper is essentially paper optimized to keep the ink from bleeding outward), it must be printed out using laser toner (i.e., either photocopier or laser printer).  Personally, I would not use photopaper if:
a) there are IC's with more than 2 traces running underneath, between the pins
b) there are traces running between two adjacent IC pins

If the traces in the PCB mask are very thin, you should probably try to "fatten" them a bit with whatever graphics software you have.  I use an older version of Paint Shop Pro.  To "fatten" traces, I convert the image to 8-bit greyscale, use the "soften" filter to smudge the edges of the traces, and then use the shadow/highlight filter (with shadow cranked up to 35-40, and highlight set to 95) to darken up the newly smudged area.
