Smile New To Transfers & Heatpress Need Help

Hi there all,
New to this so kinda lost. I am looking into starting to do some transfers. Been reading up on the posts for the CLC DuraCottonHT. I have a HP 1500L Laser will this printer work with this type of paper or do you have a better suggestion for a different type of paper to use? And what is the best price source you have found?
O.K. so now lets say I get the paper thing figured out. Where do you find all the info on Printer & Heat Press settings? Does it come with the paper or do I need to hunt around in the forums for this type of info from the "Pros"?
Any and all help would be most grateful.
Looking forward to all your reply's.

You can read about the recommended printers for the duracotton transfers on the autoart website:

DuraCotton Papers - Recommended Printers, Copiers

There's only one place to get that brand, which is from the autoart.ca site (or its distributors)

Just about every transfer you buy will come with instructions on how to press it on the shirt. Temperature, pressure, time, etc is all included. Sometimes you may need to test your press against the instructions and make some adjustments to get the transfers to come out just right.
