Hints and Tips
Transfer Printing
Extra care
should always be taken to ensure that transfer paper is
placed print down onto the article, as mistakes will result in the heat
plate becoming soiled with ink and spoiling following work.
When transfer printing
, it may be found to be advantageous to
cover the press pad with paper to prevent strike-through of surplus
ink, particularly when printing thin material as surplus print on the
pressing pad cover can also strike back on the following work.
Transfer Paper/Motifs Fail to Print Out Correctly
Check
:-
1.
Heat and time
dwell settings are correct.
2.
Article
having transfer applied is locked in contact between
pressing pad and heat plate.
3.
Pressing pad
is in good condition, and is making complete
contact over the whole area of the heat plate. See Pressing
Pad details.
