PRINTING YOUR IMAGE
Using your computer, select or design images to be transferred. Mirror or flip the image before printing.
Load transfer sheets into your printer so that the image is printed on the non-glossy (unlined) side
Print image/design on paper using the following recommended print settings:
| PRINTER | MEDIA | MODE |
|---|---|---|
| HP | Iron on Transfer | Normal |
| Epson | Plain Paper | Photo |
| Canon | Inkjet Paper | Standard or High |
Trim image/design from transfer sheet to remove excess area. Round all sharp edges for better transfer performance and adhesion.
TRANSFERRING THE IMAGE: HEAT PRESS
Preheat press to 375º F.
Press fabric for 3-5 seconds to release moisture Andre move wrinkles
Place printed image face down on the garment (the lined
side will be facing up).
Set to 40-60 PSI or use firm pressure for best results.
Press for 25 seconds.
Peel immediately for best results (HOT peel). Wait 3 seconds and remove the backing paper from the transfer using a smooth, even motion while the transfer is still HOT.
TRANSFERING THE IMAGE: IRON
Preheat your iron to the “Linen” setting for 50%-100% cotton blends or “Cotton” setting for less than 50% cotton or stretchable fabric like Lycra TM. Lay a pillowcase on the ironing surface.
Pre-iron the fabric to release moisture and remove wrinkles.
Place printed image face down on the garment (the lined side will be the ironing surface).
Using FIRM, STEADY pressure, glide the iron in a circular motion over the entire transfer for the suggested time duration. It is important to cover the transfer completely.
Recommended Ironing Time
1/4 sheet| 1 1/2 minutes
1/2 sheet| 2 1/2 minutes
Full sheet| 3 1/2 minutes
After ironing each section of the transfer, glide the iron once more over the entire transfer to heat evenly
Peel immediately for best results (HOT peel). Wait 3 seconds and remove the backing paper from the transfer using a smooth, even motion while the transfer is still HOT
If any image lifting is observed while peeling, STOP immediately and glide iron over the transfer to heat evenly while focusing on these areas with image lifting. Repeat previous step.
