    Elaine, 3M makes a transparency film called PPM 2200 that you can run
    through  a laser printer or a photocopy machine. Using an iron, you
    can then transfer the toner off of the transparency and onto your
    metal to act as a resist for etching. The 3M product is not a
    resist, just a vehicle for getting the resist from your
    printer/copier onto the metal. You can purchase a box of 100 sheets
    for about US$21 from office supply stores. 

    I like this film because it really releases the toner very
    completely and takes the heat of the iron well.

goodies using 3M PPM 2200....]
