Please help me someone before i pull all my hair out,

I have a Basix Heat Press (Air Waves Inc) which I purchased recently I have tried printing using Xpres Inkjet 1000 paper on a white tee.

Printed the transfer on Epson 7880 with pigment ink, pre heated shirt in press and followed instructions exactly

However the transfer is stuck very firmly to the Tee shirt and will not peel off.

I must be doing something wrong please help.

I used parchment paper on top and turned temp up a bit to compensate paper still stuck to tee like glue and will not release.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Chris

Then I would say it is the transfer paper my self this was the first I have heard of this type paper.

Are you using heat press on Celsius or Fahrenheit at 170 degree I would think it is celsius..

Other then that I would not know when you can get it right please let us all know..

It sound like there is a problem with the transfer paper itself. Is this a paper that was purchased at the retail level (i.e. office supply or craft store)? If so, it may not be suitable for use with a heat press.

Airwaves Inc press is a domestic product. It is rated in Farenheit. BTW the OP did not mention the temp he is using. If 170 degrees is what he is using then that is way too low.

Hi All

I was using in kjet 1000 by xpres using exact temp etc, and pressure but the paper will not release, i have since sucessfully used the dark jet paper and plasticol transfers its just this one type of paper, tomorrow i will try again but leave transfer under press for longer.
