Default Ever gone GREEN???

Okay, I pressed an organic tote with Best Blanks transfer paper for lights (inkjet). The color was great, it was a mostly black (grayscale) image - I just ran it through the wash, (not completely dry yet) and now the black is green. I did use Vivera Dye ink - do you think that's the issue? I used the same ink on Jet Opaque without any issue.

Here's a picture - the picture doesn't really show how GREEN it is - it's like a bright army green.

Hey. I just posted in the other thread on this. This is most likely what is known as color shifting (a problem mostly linked with using Epson Durabrite inks.)

With durabrite, alot of folks try to deal with it by reducing the yellow in the printer settings. If that doesn't work, they often change to 3rd party inks, either refill carts or bulk ink.
