Mine is a Rexel LP30 and shows 125C as the max setting although I haven't measured it!

Two passes is usually enough but I preheat the boards (pass them through a few times) before laying up the laser print and running it through twice.

I also use old backing paper from the CDROM label sheets, one left over after printing a CDROM for the laser print. It takes the toner easily on the shiny side and it comes off with a wipe of the finger (!) but, with care, can easily be stuck to a bare pcb.
