Default printing Caps

Has anyone used the cap attachment with the T-Jet 2.

I just purchased a T-Jet 2 and it came with a cap attachment. After I loaded a cap into the frame I noticed that the buckram gets creases in several places. Will pressing the cap fix this issue. I don't have a cap press yet so I can't test it.

If the buckram is going to look that bad after pressing I don't think I will even try to print on caps.

Default Re: printing Caps

The cap attachment for the T-Jet 2 is made to print on less structured caps, like golf caps and trucker caps. Thicker caps (like baseball caps) may not work as well.

Default Re: printing Caps

I was able to get the cap into the attachment and keep it flat but doing so creases the buckram. I am going to try to take an old cap and put a large crease in the buckram then try to iron it out. If that works then a cap press should do the trick.
