Jason, did both solder pastes have the same flux chemistry?

Hi Jason,

I don't believe this has anything to do with silver.
The fine powder of your type 5 paste has a MUCH larger ratio between
soldersurface and soldervolume than the part 3 type, which means that it is
more difficult to keep the powder particles stable and oxide-free. The
smaller process window increases the chance of printing problems.
Hopefully a more accurate description will be given by one of the paste
manufacturers on this forum, but I think I'm pretty close....

Best regards,

Daan
