Default Roland SP-300V & Poli-Flex transfer tape problem

Hello!

I've just bought a SP-300V, and I'm trying to print/cut some t-shirt transfers. I can print and cut them, but I'm having problems applying them to t-shirts. Shirts are 100% cotton, and I press at 170 degrees celcius, 12seconds. I've also tried other temperature and time-settings.

The problem is that the transfer won't stick to the shirt. Not at all! Any ideas on what I may be doing wrong? I apply the application tape like in this movie: YouTube - Roland Versacamm Demo

Hope this makes sense.. :-)

Best regards,
Torbjørn

Sounds like it may be a compatibility issue between your printable media and garment type. What type of media are you using? Did it come with recommended application settings?

I printed on the right side - however this particular material needs to be printed mirrored, and put face-down on the shirt - no application tape needed.

Everything works great now!
