Toner Transfer Paper Problems

[gaborbela]

Hello

These paper use to be the best!
Now available only in 100 sheets .I used up one 30 and one 100 sheets.
After I went to Kinko's I used their paper but right now they change the quality of the paper to.
Both side glossy. Usually to me that does not work.
Be careful these Staples paper have to be glossy! The blue cover has plastic on the paper , right away stick on my iron
I hope I could help.
Try that method I advised to you , even the plastic transfer foil work to in that way.
Paper is better because you can socked done and it comes out better.
BTW the number of the 30 sheets 471861, the 100 sheets end with 65 but that was not so good than the first one , but still works well.
I didn't tried the new paper yet!
Greetings.

Maybe up there in the tundra. I can find it for sale all the over the place down here.

That's the stuff I threw in the garbage. It wasn't bad, but it doesn't release from the PCB very well. The HP presentation paper literally justs falls off when soaked.

Hello
That paper works just takes time to sock the paper and you have to rub with your finger!
Use 45-50C degree water.
Is good to know there are better papers out there..

Hi Gaborbela,
Yes, I used 130 of those older sheets. They are NOT the same now. That was my point.

The tundra...
I'll have a look on Sunday.
HP's website is not showing it either. I didn't want to have to order from the States unless I have to.

There are HP papers on ebay it would be great if someone could post a picture from the good paper.
Many of them use plastic coating those are not good also!
Thanks

It's thin like magazine pages (the thicker variety though).

Here is the first Canadian source I could find.....

I wonder is the HP matte finish usable? I tried some matte Epsom I have and it wasn't great but it did transfer.
EDIT: scratch that, the matte isn't in stock either.

Here, I found a scrap piece of the old Staples paper and took a pic of it next to the presentation paper. The photo paper is on the left.....
