Ok guys im new to the T-shirt industry and I'm just wondering if you guys could help me on what else I need.

Next week Im planning on purchasing a Sunie 16"D x 24"W Heat Press digital screen for sunie.com and a Epson Workforce 1100 with pre installed CIS from cobraink.com. Besides transfer paper which I plan on purchasing from cobraink is there anything else I need to buy.

Thanks alot for your time, you guys rock!

Sheet of Teflon for pressing and post pressing.

You can also use paper sheets instead of a Teflon pad when pressing.

If you are printing your own designs, and on dark shirts, you might need to contour cut the transfer so you don't get a polymer box on your garment.

You got Software? You need to mirror the image before printing.

If you intend to press onto white or gray shirts, you do not need a cutter. If you intend to press onto dark colored shirts and use opaque paper you need to contour cut those. You can also use the cutter for cutting vinyl for shirts, signs, decals and rhinestone stencils.
