Fax Machine Toner

[Austin73]

Hi Everyone,

Probably a really stupid question but ...... Can I use a fax machine to put toner on pnp or photo paper to make PCB's. I still don't have a laser printer and don't have one at work I could borrow but I did notice the other day the fax machine has a copy setting which seems to do a laser printer style print lol

Anybody have any experience of using one? Or am I barking up the wrong tree as usual.

Cheers for any input

i think it depends on the fax machine.... if it's a thermal or laser machine, you should be all good.  most fax machines come equipped with a "copy" feature on them as well

"Fax Toner Machine" (couldn't resist the similarity when I saw the post.)

Yeah I should do a Fax Toner Machine for my first test! lol

I'm on nights this weekend so I'm going to give it a bash if I get a chance and post the results. Cheers for the info chaps.
