If you mean for photofilm exposure, don't.  Toner doesn't block enough
UV to do that, you need an inkjet.  In my case, my laserjet 2550N only
provides two steps of UV blocking (er, it lets half the light through,
think "decibels") where my inkjet's black ink provides eight steps
(1/16 light gets through).  The film I'm using specs a two step
variation for ideal exposure, so the variance on the film is the same
as the blocking from the toner - not good enough.
