OK, not ordered a 510! Lol. This printer is now discontinued. I've ordered the replacement printer, the 511. Suppliers tell me is an identical machine and is being used for transferred etc by many customers.

Hello, it's been a busy time for me lately, just took over a new web site (pm me if you would like a peek) anyway, xpress sent me some 2 paper no weed CMYK TONER paper, I've just printed it onto a black tshirt and I'm more than happy, it looks superb. I would say I defiantly need a new expensive press as my Chinese model may not be up to the standard required to get a perfect print all the time. I went for a gloss finish but if I re pressed a second time I could of had Matt, I believe this paper is quite expensive but the result is worth every penny.....

£70 for 100 x A&B papers. So about £150 with the vat etc.

Is there a simple (ie one pass - one paper) system to put black text from a laser onto white (or light tshirts) with no weeding?

Yes, textile transfer light is what you are looking for.

Personally I favour TTC from The Magic Touch. Others will favour other suppliers like Target and Xpres

TTC Very good.
yolo Digi-Trans very good also

or yolo image clip is very good also its no weed and a 2 paper system but with a good press is very easy to do..

I use Yolo and have some continual problems. The problems are probably as Logo says, down to my technique so without appearing to bash Yolo.
Mugs and More, on mugs...best printed on a dye sub mug as my dishwasher test have proven using a sample from ASDA/Dye sub mug of similar proportions.
Printing onto metal, comes off with handling but tada I figured out the work around to prevent that and ensure longevity.

Jet Soft Pro Stretch. Nice paper but .....It doesn't peel off in one motion for me and if I contour cut it breaks up on peel like a jigsaw. I always have a small amount of yellowing somewhere (looks like thin glue or sellotape reside) on a white shirt. I have tried different pressure, different dwell, different temp and always get some yellowing somewhere in the clear of the print. Maybe I should start increasing the dwell times as it's a curing problem

If anyone has had this problem and worked out what they did to correct it please let me in on the secret.

Wow, I'm wondering if I should change my name to thread Killer LoL
