The ink is normal. On a normal white T the shirt is the white of the print. Dark T there is no white. So the dark paper is printed correct read so the paper is the background. Unless there is new stuff on the market.

When you print to transfer paper for light colored garments you want to mirror the image. If you are printing to transfer paper for darks, which is opaque paper then you print the picture just as it is.

thx donita. this is getting more complicated than I thought! Ummm , I will be printing with the ebson 1400 . I will learn by trial and error and all the great help and advise from the pro's at this forum. I thank you for the advise. Can you add letters to a previusly heat pressed image onto a t shirt or will it destroy the first heat transfer on the shirt.
thx ken
