I have some extra sheets of the blue printer film if you want to test it out right away. It works pretty well for large features printed from a laser printer (and you can use a sharpie to correct for problems in the transferring).

Hi all --
YES! Some of my favorite stuff (next to PDMS) is the "Press-n-Peel" PCB
film (http://www.techniks.com/). It's a film that you can run through a
laser printer. The ink stays on the film, but is easily transferred
when you iron it onto your substrate, It is not high resolution (maybe
100 um), but is easy and cheap and stands up to standard copper etchant.
