Default Epson C120 printer settings, JetPro SofStretch for lights
Hello-
My friend just got a fabulous deal on a Epson C120. I'm wondering what printer/paper settings when using Jetpro Sofstretch on 100% cotton tees.
Thanks!

375* for 30 seconds... this is the most common press and dwell time... some adjust from there depending on their actual press temps and results.

Please make sure to mirror the image, I once printed 10 transfers without doing this and of course they were unusable. I guess this is what happens when you don't engage your brain first. I suggest you always double check everything before you hit the print key. .... JB

You peel hot immediatly then take the sides of the **** and stretch it then top to bottom. This prevents the inks from hardening and gives the shirt a softer feel as well as allowing it to stretch with the wearer.

I also use jpss and dark... i was reading the instructions to both and they say 30 sec.. yet my presser does 390 for 5 sec with a pressure mounted release.. i have had no problems yet... should i insist on more like 20 seconds...? please help im a bit confused.. this is not the happiest presser youve met.
