Default Re: HP transfer paper

As an ex Epson demo rep I know that paper from most manufactures like Epson and HP would not put out Crap.. But they do formulate their paper to work with their ink systems and that you should take note of. Then again a lot of the paper is made for them by the same people that make our "Commercial paper." One thing I would do in the future is get yourself some sample shirts done in advance. make it you portfolio. When I see a client I show them all the processes I can do and have shirts with those processes available. You should have Plastisol, transfer on lights, transfers for darks. If you have vinyl then have that available. I got a client last night who needs 46 shirts. by early next week They told me it was 4 colors and I told them them the plastisol price and said it would be 2 and a half weeks.(I do not do direct screen printing) They had no budget. Then they said these were going to be a one day affair and that they did not need anything fancy but wanted the shirts to look good for the event. We are doing the shirts with Iron All and will complete by Friday. They are happy with the price and time and the shirt sample I showed them. Lou
