If using a Heat Press, place a silicone treated
piece of parchment paper (a common
baking pan liner) over the print and close the
press. When you open the press, peel the
paper immediately. The paper can be used a
number of times before it becomes too
wrinkled to use.
You will only use the silicone treated paper for curing after the entire print •
has been completed. You risk ruining a shirt if you use silicone paper in the
Pretreatment phase.
If you want a glossy print, use a standard Te fl on pad rather than silicone •
treated parchment when curing the print in a Heat Press. Te fl on pads are
available from most Heat Press manufacturers.
Important Point
When printing gradient images with White ink, you should have two
versions of the artwork. One version will have a White background
and the other will have a Black background. These two fi les can
be created in Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, CorelDRAW or even in
FastARTIST. If you use another program, simply save or export the
fi les as a JPEG fi le at 250 DPI resolution for the fi nal print size and
Import these fi les into FastARTIST.
There is an excellent video tutorial on Underbasing with Two Versions of the
Artwork on the T-Jet Support page.
