Ya, but pyralux, isn’t photosensitive.  I wonder if there is some kind of brush-on polymer paint that is UV curable and the rest can be washed off?  The UV cured portion would change from being somehow water soluble to acetone/alcohol soluble.   Maybe that’s even what you’re talking about.  Would love to know about it if it exists.

Actually it just occurred to me...

If you wrote an app that calculates the screen size and displays Gerber images, then with a blue filter and fresnel lens you could easily expose photosensitive PCBs (and even align two side ones).

you can also do the thing Morgan was doing, where you spray paint the copper
and then use the laser cutter to remove paint wherever you want, and then etch.

and there's always the toner-transfer method if you can get a laser printer to
work.

Might work.  Congrats on getting on of those!  Ya, like you said, or didn’t
exactly say, I would need a mask that has an adhesive or have to use a
vapor, which I’m really not set up to do.  As a plan B.  Does anyone know
where I can use a high quality vinyl cutter?  AMT has a cutter, but I can’t
get much resolution out of it before something ultimately goes to shit.

Just tried the other printer after I sent that message.  I think I’m on
the right track now.  It was the printer with an asset label but without a
paper tray, initially.

did you try both?  did either one of them print a test page?
(assuming there
was paper in the tray or in the manual-feed loader)

note that the printer will throw an error if the paper tray is not
present.

Ya, no, this printer is just not going to print.  If you’re coming
over to
sudo tonight, I would love to know what the magic is to making this
thing
work.

one of them works, the other has mechanical problems i think (and has

please put paper notes on the printers with whatever you discover,
for the
next
person...

here's my imgur instructable about how to use these printers to etch
pyralux
circuits (don't forget to bake the ink on before trying to etch!):
