Buy jetflex from Imprintables and if your printer takes vivera ink ok other wise it is a dye ink and not good for transfers.

If you use dye ink, it's likely your transfer will run when washed.

Well, on the HP site for your printer, it seems to state it uses the vivera pigment inks, so you should be fine:
HP Photosmart C7180 All-in-One series specifications - HP Home & Home Office products

Sometimes the resellers don't put all the information on their site so it's good to go to the source (hp.com in this case)
