If you want to do an on copper resist, many markers and inks will do the job - but they have to be water resistant when finally dried as the etchant is always a water-based solution.[/quote]

Exactly true. That is what is so cool about the item I posted at the top of this thread: This guy figured out that this one specific ink would NOT disolve in the etchant if you cured it as he specifies. 

And it is then useful not only for the etch resist, but also for soldermask and component silkscreen. Once you can feed a PCB through the printer and get an INK that really sticks, all the issues in making PCBs really fall away.
