Sådan Print Heat Transfer Papers på T-shirts efter Glad Great

First off let me say that the heat transfer papers for light garments or tee

shirts will not work on black or dark colored shirts. The transfers made for

light garments lack the opacity to cover black or dark fabrics. Remember,


standard computer printers do not print white. Therefore the digital transfer


does not have any white in the image. The white in the image will come

from the white or light colored garment. On a black shirt the image would

be missing all white information in the design and the colored inks will not

have the opacity to cover the dark fabric. Therefore a heat transfer for light


garments applied to a dark shirt will almost disappear into the black fabric.

Now lets talk about the ghosting effect or the “halo”. It is the nature of the

beast for inkjet or laser heat transfers to apply the polymer adhesive to the

garment even in the areas where there isn’t any image printed. Now there


are some “self weeding” transfer papers that will only transfer the adhesive

where the inkjet ink or laser toner is. Those are 2 part processes in which


the adhesive is transferred to the actual heat transfer right before you press


the shirt. The result is a transfer that can do text and free floating objects


without having a “halo” of adhesive through out the negative space.

Any type of design that can be contained in a solid shape is perfect. Free

floating text or design elements with intricate line work and a lot of


negative space will not work so well with standard digital heat transfers for

light garments. And that would have separated much of the transfer from


itself as well. Since this was a prototype for me to get some feedback on the


design, it worked out just fine for me. But when you create your artwork for

standard heat transfers for light garments, it is critical to take this into

account. If you can design the artwork to work with the limitations of the


transfer process, you can make some really cool shirts at home.

The first thing you need to do when you print a design onto transfer paper

is to reverse or mirror the image. This can be done one of 2 ways. First,

you can simply do it in the graphic software you use to create the design.

Or you can actually do it through the print dialogue when you go to print.

Most computer printers will have a setting for transfers. It will be either


called “transfer” or something of that nature. If you are unsure, consult


your printer manual for details on the printer settings and functions.

Once your transfer paper is printed, it is a good idea to let the transfer set

for an hour. This will allow the transfer to become a little more stable to


work with especially when trimming. If you use scissors to trim the edges


be carful not to scrape the point of the scissors inside the design area as you

cut around it. That may damage or scrape off the transfer layer of the


transfer paper. Any damage or imperfections in the transfer itself will show


up pretty much as they are on the shirt, just reversed. So be very careful


when trimming or handling the printed transfer.

You will want to trim the paper as close to the design edges as possible.


Leaving a very small white edge around the image will be fine. That “halo”

will be barely visible as a ring around the design. Just keep it as small as

humanly possible. You can use scissors, box knives, razors to trim the


printed transfer. Now you are ready to press the transfer to the shirt using


an iron or heat press.

This is where we should talk about the heat application of your transfer.


The inkjet heat transfers featured are made for usage at home with an iron.


However, the quality of your transfer depends greatly on the application.


You can use an iron with these transfers but if you use a heat press the


transfer quality, durability and longevity will be greatly enhanced and


increased. The amount of heat and pressure that the heat press applies is far

greater than that of a household iron. In fact I say that using a good


working heat press with any transfer material will improve the quality of


the transfer material’s performance. Thus making it look better and last

longer.
