Hi

After having had to change to a new paper due to changing technology ( fuser oil to non fuser oil copier), I'm having a quality control problem, where my old paper would leave hardly any residue or window, my new paper is leaving me baffled to the point that I only offer it now when a customer knows that it will only withstand a couple of washes and will crack after the first.
What paper do you use? Duracotton? photo-trans? I have a konica minolta printer and some manufacturers do not support the printer or do not recomend it, now I'm using forever classic + , and there are some things that I like ( color vibrancy, and detail), but many that I do not ( cracking, little flexibility and fiber/dust trapment under coating, taht makes some shirts hardly production worthy).

If someone has some insight or can direct me to some info that would be great, I have almost stopped doing tranfers due to this.

thank's.

Duracotton has a paper especially made for the Konica-Minolta laser printers. Go to AutoART: AutoARTransfers, DuraCotton Digital Heat Transfer Papers to find distributor nearest you (that website is the manufacturer) also they have new paper for some pastel colors

thanks Charles.

I'm already in touch with Ken From duracotton, and he is keeping me well informed in all the advancements, ( very attentive ), but he advised me to wait a bit until the latest batch of enhanced paper comes around to production quality, and he can send me a sample, so meanwhile I decided to make the wait worth its time and do some research. and from what I hear is down to duracotton and neenah. isn't it? is the polymer in this papers thick? I have been having so many problems with fibers and dust getting in between the paper and the shirt ( my place may not be of clinical standards but is certainly clean), that is making me bore the system to death and favour other production methods albeit being more expensive, and not as good in definition.
