Ferric Chloride...
It's messy and stains everything but it's much less horrible in nearly every other way.

The iron-on-toner-transfer thing works just great. Here are some boards I did from some artwork I found on the 'net:

The real problem was that the copier paper was a bit rough and "hairy" so the tracks needed a lot of cleaning up. Glossy magazine paper works well, apparently.

I did use
glossy magazine paper, but found that HELLO 90GSM works far better and is much less hit-and-miss. It's a bastard to get off once ironed on, but once you do get it off it works 100% of the time.
