I am not aware of any 'regular bond paper' that you can use for inkjet transfers. For inkjet, I think best results will be using pigment inks and make sure you are using the right paper for the garment. You will need a different paper for dark colors and a different one for light/white/pastels

The section in the forum on inkjet transfers will give you loads of information

Or Epson C120 ~~ might still be some refurbished ones at Epson ... were around $32.00.

Once you print off your inkjet transfer (for lights), you need to trim it before pressing.
