There's a company called Black Lightning that makes toner cartridges for LaserJet/LaserWriter series printers. This is no ordinary toner though, after the image is printed on to paper it can then be transfered on to anything (cloth (T-shirts) seems to work best) using a hand-iron (the type you use to iron clothes with). The October '91 issue of BYTE has a story on this. The techique was tried on metal but the article mentions that it didn't work properly because the surface was not prepared properly... Basically, whatever you can print-out on your printer you can transfer on to your front-panel. Cartridges start at $80.00 & you can get them in different colors. The address is: Black Lightning RR 1, Box 87, Depot Rd. Hartland, VT 05048 (802) 436-3257
