ImageClip is for a laser printer. The HP is inkjet.
Imaging print not transferring to Transfer paper
This is my first time trying to use laser transfer paper and a heat press. I have printed the design on the Imaging paper. I lay the Imaging paper with the Transfer paper in the heat press at 210 degrees , heavy pressure for 20 seconds. Lift and the ink does not transfer. Tried 2x with two prints.
