Default Does all colors of ink in transfers press at the same temp.?

Hi, does all the ink colors press at the same temp? I am doing a proworld transfer that with five colors all of the colors do well except the red ink. I am working on a black shirt and I have tried several times with diferent temps. and pressures and the red never prints like the other ones do. Any ideas? Thanks for any help. I am afraid to try any more shirts untill I know what is going on.

Are you pre-pressing your shirts?

yes I am. I use a peace of plastic to see if it steams up. When it is clear. I press right away.
