Default Black On White

I have a Brother GT-541 and am noticing that when I print black on white Tees it fades significantly after the first wash.

Does anyone who owns a Brother have any advise on this?

The Brother prints very nice blacks, so it must be something within your process. Either what Corey said, or maybe your heat press settings/temperature. Also, what shirts are you printing on?

Eric,
Why aren't you at the ISS? I figured you would be checking stuff out so you can tell me about what to expect in March!

We'll be there in a few hours. Gotta wrap up some stuff around here and then see our daughter off to winter camp.

I'll fill you in, don't worry!!
