T-Shirt & Pillow Transfers

What you need:

Epson Iron-On Transfer Paper A4, Supported Epson ink jet printer. (Just check that your printer supports Iron-On Transfer page by visiting www.epson.com.au)

Instructions:

Make the following settings in the printer driver before you print the t-shirt transfer.

  • Set the Media Type to Iron-On cool Peel Transfer Paper.
  • Select A4 as the Paper Size
  • Set the Print Quality to Super Fine

Preparation:

  • Trim the margin around the design, leaving about 5 mm around the image. Avoid cutting the edges sharp. Try to round the edges when you cut.
  • Place your T-shirt or other material on a smooth, hard wood or metal surface. Hint: Do not use glass or a padded ironing board.
  • Set your iron highest dry setting --no steam.
  • Place a pillowcase on the ironing surface for padding, and iron it to remove any wrinkles. Make sure the pillowcase and ironing surface are completely smooth.
  • Place the T-shirt, apron, or other material on top of the pillowcase. Iron the area on the item where the transfer will be applied; avoid placing the transfer on seams.
  • Let the surface of the item cool before placing the transfer on top. Place the transfer with the image face down and the white side up.

Ironing your design & Caring for your material:

For best results, carefully follow the instructions included with the transfer paper.
