Does anybody print transfers ahead of time and store them or do you just print when you need to make a shirt??

I'm wondering if I should print off a few of the same pattern and store them.

I was thinking in hanging file folders in a box but I wonder if storing transfers next to each other might promote bleeding etc.

Hello,

We have stored our printed transfers in zip lock bags without a problem. (6-8 to a bag)

Inkjet transfers can deteriorate over time. Plasticol or vinyl transfers can be stored forever.

It'll still take a while for any transfer to deteriorate though, I imagine. I've stored inkjet prints for at least a few months before printing them without any problem... should be fine to store them, just don't store them indefinitely.

I have had problems with storing inkjet transfers. When I used to use jetwear brand transfers, I found that if you store the transfers for more than one day, they dont transfer properly. I havent tried storing transjet transfers, becuase of my past experience with jetwear transfers.

Actually ive been doing transfers for years and they do have a shelf life =0)

Just be careful who you order them from.

If you print them yourself and only store them for a few weeks will they be fine to use and what is the best way to store them
