Heat Transfer Paper you can write signed signatures on????
I am wondering if there is a transfer paper that you can write on (school class signatures) with sharpie? and then heat press on t-shirts? Is there anything like this to use?
Was looking for the easiest way to do this without having to go to screenprinter just for one shirt for teacher. Need answer pretty quick.

There is a new paper out for laser printers that will do that but i'm sorry I can't remember the name of it. Maybe search the threads under laser printing and it will pop up.

Office supply stores carry transfer sheets for both light and darks for 1 shirt might be all you need.If your using asharpie why not just write on the shirt?
Re: Heat Transfer Paper you can write signed signatures on????
Keep in mind that most transfer papers reverse the image, so signing directly on the transfer would be a problem.
You could have people sign a piece of paper, scan it, reverse it (and clean it up if you like), and print it on transfer paper.
If you have access to a heat press, you could use a paper that doesn't leave a "window" (ImageClip, DurraCotton...) and I think it would look quite nice. You wouldn't even need a color laser printer. Plus, you could print the signatures all over the shirt using multiple transfers.

If you don't need a laser printer how would you print the transfer.Thanks

Check out Transfer Express. They do transfers with signatures. They will send you a template to sign and then you send it back and they make it a transfer. They come out really nice!
Re: Heat Transfer Paper you can write signed signatures on????
You can draw directly on the trasfer with a sharpie and transfer it. But as stated before, it will reverse. I did a similar thing for my daughter (3rd grader). I used an opaque transfer and made a design on it, cut it out and transferred it to the shirt. The kids signed right on it. I'm not worried about staying power as she won't wear it or wash it.

I am really confused. I thought you had to have a color laser printer for the duracotton paper.
Am I missing something?
If you can do it on an inkjet why wouldn't everyone be using it since they say it has no hand feel

Chris I'm waiting to find this out too.

Yes, duracotton is for laser printers although you can write with a shapie on it and press it on a shirt but the best bet would be to get a permanent laundry marker to write on the shirt with. It's much more durable than a sharpie

How do you get it reversed.Wouldn't it printed backwards being hand written.

If you want to produce a color transfer, you would need a color printer. If you wanted to produce signatures in black and white, you should be able to do it with a standard laser printer.
