I'm having a difficult time getting what I want out of the heat transfers......currently I'm using the transjet II an epson printer and hix press with the durabrite inks.
I've washed a couple of my shirts 2 or 3 times and the transfers look like they're fading. Any clear areas turn an ugly yellow color. I've been trying to see how they would stand up in the economy washers and dryers in the laundromat down the street (of course that's really my only option), but I'm disappointed they don't hold up a little bit better.
I've tried tons of settings 375 degrees at 13-15 seconds, 375 at 16-20 seconds 400 at 20-25 seconds. The pressure on the press is as far as it will go without damaging it. I've just invested in the majicmix inks to see if they'll last longer but I haven't received them yet. In the meantime, any other suggestions?
Thanks!
