I don't see a section for laser transfers...but there is a new ONE STEP transfer paper out for laser printers. I use an Okidata 5800 and the new paper from
http://tshirttransfers.org/ and use the 10 second knockout...no border, no weeding and no polymer square. I did not have much luck doing just 10 second press but at 18 seconds...390F...heavy pressure...and peel in about 4-5 seconds...it will take a couple tries to get it right with your own press as each press is a bit different I think...but the price is right at about .55 cents per 8.5x11 sheet..I am uploading a pic taken using this paper. It is green logo and I pressed on a tan cap...I left the press a bit long and got a bit of paper imprint but you can see how the color came out on tan...

Thanks for opening this topic Charles.

I have a new paper for laser Printer/copiers also. It is from Joto and is called CL Trim Free. I have just completed testing and I find it to meet their advertising claims. I printed some "Natural unbleached" totes, gray Tees, several different color "pastel" colored shirts and this cap.
 I repressed the graphic with a silicone sheet per instructions. That left a modest shine to the image on the cap.The sun reflected off the image up by the bow of the ship, ignore it.

 Excerpt from their ad follows:

Paropy CL TrimFree for laser printers and copiers is a unique, single-step self weeding transfer paper for white and light colored fabrics. TrimFree will run without exception on both oil and non-oil color laser copiers and printers

Developed to leave ZERO background in the unimaged areas of the design, TrimFree eliminates the need for trimming the image prior to pressing. Ideally suited for full color logos or artwork, TrimFree can be applied to cotton, cotton blends, 100% polyester, leather and more..

My cap is a STONE color Harriton #800 five panel printed with an OKI C6150 on Labels 1, pressed for 30 seconds at 380 degrees.

Looks promising.
Can you let us know the color retention after the tees have been washed a few times.

Sorry, I thought I posted that I have tested it on Tshirts. It seems to work fine. There is a learning curve based on YOUR heat press and Laser printer so be ready to waste some paper and ink.

DO A WASH TEST BEFORE CREATING A CLIENT ORDER.
