I am not sure what happened. When I transferred the samples I got from t shirt world, they came out fine. I just received the Epson workforce 30, printed out a picture which came nice, followed the same directions but the transfer came out yellow twice. I do not know what and where I went wrong.

Did it turn yellow after heat pressing or came out of the printer yellow. If it printed yellow do a head cleaning or nozzle check on your printer. I know my epson will sometimes not print the cyan, magenta, or yellow sometimes. Hope that helps

Workforce 30 is the non-wide-format version of the 1100. If you are using Epson OEM inks then it is known that transfers yellow on pressing. If you are using the standard refill pigments, they yellow less than the Epson ones, enough that you can fix it by decreasing the saturation of yellow in your image. Some companies sell transfer-specific inks for the 1100, where the yellow is formulated for lower intensity so it doesn't cause issues when pressed.

Hey Deand, how are you doing Neighbor?

I agree with Nyce One, you might need a head cleaning or two. If it came out Yellow after heat presses the temp was too high/long. Do you have a Teflon sheet? If not, you could use Parchment Paper to cover it.

I'm in Toms River if you need help. I go out to Moorestown 5 or 6 days a week.

My thoughts were that it was on there too long. But at I am not sure how to fix. I had the press on for about 6-8 seconds, I have never heard of anything shorter. I probably have to find the right time and temp that will work with my printer.

Thanks for the input.

The time and temp usually comes from the Transfer Paper Supplier. So are you saying the garment came out yellow after you pressed it?

Do you have a Teflon Sheet or Parchment Paper to cover the Transfer during pressing?

I do but have not had to use it for the first few transfers.

6-8 sec sounds very short for inkjet transfers. I press inkjet transfers for 30 secs. @ 375 deg. F. for JPSS, after a garment pre press. Also, I have my yellow turned down.

Maybe that's why they're yellow

The first batch I did was at 375 and 20 seconds, that still came out yellow.
