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.
