Re: totebag printing We do customer transfers, which at least to me, is the best route

Re: totebag printing Hello I will use a tranfer, if you are using different colors, or a one or two color I would screen print them. Latonya

Re: totebag printing We are currently using Trans~4~Jet Heat Transfer Paper that can be bought from Discovery Lancer in Toronto. But we are also just starting out and those are the first type we have used. I am sure that there are other, more readily accessible types that would work for tote bags. We are doing black bags with silkscreening, and natural bags with a combination of heat transfers and silkscreening depending on the complexity of the design.
Good Luck

Re: totebag printing Hi Wes,
There is a UK member Deniseg who does really nice tote bags, she uses Duracotton printed on a laser printer. Check out her previous postings, should give you an idea how she do's it.
