does what it says on the tin

I do a lot of my own art design and printing and am frequently dismayed by the lack of imaginative artwork available from professional T.Shirt manufacturers.Also often dissapointed with goods I've ordered online. I have often desired to try using my own designs but was sceptical of results achievable using a home printer.
Decided this week to give Epson cool transfer paper a try - carefully following instructions and using an expendable T shirt to experiment.
I needn't have worried - worked perfect first time. There are plenty of pale pastel shade fabrics available that show off the prints superbly ~ these can be inexpensive and make the process cost effective. Laundered and handled carefully they give sufficient wear to provide a decorative alternative and cheap way to customise casual clothing. I'm impressed.

Disaster with an iron

Don't try to use this product with an HP printer, or using a dark t-shirt. I used a simple two tone image printed with a HP Photosmart 7660. While the image on the paper was clear when printed, and I was able to get the paper aligned correctly prior to printing, the final product was horrible. When I peeled back the paper what was left on the dark green shirt was a mess. The image was dim, the residue that remained on the shirt looked like some sort of disease. The final result was the creation of three paint rags, since the images were so bad I wouldn't even wear them to take out the trash. If you need to have a few custom shirts take your image to a local printer and don't bother with this product. What you waste in ruined shirts more than offsets the cost of having the job done right.

excellent color transfer

I need to put images and text on three t-shirts, and having an Epson Photo 890 printer, I naturally ordered the Epson iron-on transfer paper. I was surprised at the color quality of the image transfer - it's really good. For the text, I had to be sure to flip it horizntally before I printed it, so that it wouldn't be backwards on the shirt. I forgot once, but luckily it was on a practice shirt. Overall, I'm happy with the results, and I'll bet when we wear the shirts for an upcoming event, people will be surprised I did it myself.
