Hi all,
I just made a few test shirts with the pack of JPSS paper I bought from Coastal Business. I'm very impressed with what I see so far. Wash tests are next.
I'm using an Epson 1400 with Claria Inks, JPSS 11x17 paper and a Phoenix Phire 16x20 heat press. I pressed at 360 degrees at a pressure of 8 for 30 seconds. I didn't expect the tests to turn out this nice on my first try. I'm going to wash them as the directions say to and I'll post updated pics later. So far I'm giving this process a 9 out of 10, very impressed. Hope it holds up in the wash.
John

John,

Thank you for posting your results and being so specific about the materials you used. The shirts look great! Please post some thumbnails of your washing results.

Thanks for the compliments guys and as soon as I get them washed I'll make another post with the comparison pics. If these hold up well, I'll just be tickled to death. This is why I got into all this to begin with, get my designs on shirts at home! To be continued....

Hey! those look great...congrats. I tried some paropy lights and like them but the colours came out wrong..like it dumped to much ink.
What setteing were you using? I had myne set on best photo and high glossy premium with the vivid mode...im going to try different settings and see if i can get that kinda quality.
Cheers.

Here it is taken with a crappy camera...looks over saturated.

the file was to big,
What do you think? The original art is really vivid and figured the light cyan and magenta inks would pull this off nice.
