Default can I print transfers with this printer?

Good evening,
This may sound like a dumb question, but when I was in Vegas last month for the SGIA show someone told me I could use my printer to do transfers, just wanting to check with everyone here to see if that is the case.

I have an epson stylus photoRX600

I do screen printing, and DTG but would also like to do transfers for the portability

Thanks for all your help

Hi,
We use canons for our printing, but before the week is over will be switching over to epsons, I have 2 that we use for dye sub printing, I believe epsons are great for priniting transfers because the use pigment ink and not dye-based ink. The pigment ink is water resistent and will last much, much longer. Here is a link to an article explaining the difference.

Hope this helps
