Printer needs to be a lazer printer. I use a brother.
Have a search around the cafe and you will find quite a bit of helpfull information.

I use a Canon image class MF 227 dw laser printer for acetone transfers.
And an HP Envy 5660 ink jet for transparency transfer using Tom White's Transfer Magic.
There are many other combinations that will work and much info available with a Cafe search.

David Sheehan was kind enough to put me on to the HP Envy 5660 after my last ink jet bit the bullet. So I'm just passing it on.

I use the 5660 alone with 1 cart. black only. seems to work pretty good ........although there are some that need the ink density bumped up after the first copy. cut on fine people. Rob

My acetone transfers work well on copper but i have a hard time getting them to work on brass. Does anyone else have this problem?

Would the Image Class Mf 232 work as well?

I don't see why not but to be sure what I suggest is to go to one of the big box stores that have demos and get a printed sheet to test.

My Epson CP-4400 has pretty much died. I bought those refillable cartridges, and , of course, the black will not transfer because it's dye, not pigment. The Epson cartridge #88 brand new does not sound like there's any ink in it at all. At $20/cartridge, I am totally sick of getting one transparency off the printer than fighting with it to make another.

Does anyone have a good printer for transparencies that will transfer, either with Transfer Magic , or homebrew transfer solution? Help, please. I can draw by hand, but time constraints/$$ charged make the CorelDraw option viable.

Ive not tried transparency, but I've had good luck with the laserjet pro M102w. It's worked for regular transfers remarkably well.

I really like transparencies because then I can see exactly where I need to burnish.
