Guidelines & Standard Settings
The following information covers some basic guidelines for
pressing, as well as some generic parameters for basic heat transfer
applications.
• When pressing shirts, it is often recommended that the shirts be quickly
pressed for 2 seconds before transferring to remove wrinkles and water
content.
• When pressing two sides of a garment, pull the garment over the table
so that the printed side drapes underneath the table. This will avoid
reheating previously transferred designs on opposite sides of garments.
It will also avoid any bleed-through of inks on lighter fabrics.
• Avoid laying collars, cuffs, zippers, and other bulky parts of garments
on the lower table, as these can adversely affect pressing conditions,
and reduce the life of the silicone pad.
• When pressing rigid substrates (plastics, metals, woods, etc.), be sure
that any protective films or laminates are removed before heating.
• Always check that the transfer image is face down against the material,
to avoid sealing the image against the heat platen instead of the
substrate.
Always follow the transfer media suppliers instructions when
pressing. The information below is for general reference only, and
may not be as accurate as the instructions provided by the transfer
media & imprintable substrate supplier.
