We use Durabrite inks for testing so it is likely not to be a problem with inks. We'd recommend trying to press without the greaseproof and adjust the temperature and/or time slightly.

Greaseproof paper is for cooking, its a waxed paper - but not for heatpress graphics. If buying from a well known supermarket then Siliconised baking sheet is the type. You are better buying release paper (siliconised paper) from a paper supplier.

Cameo - the thickness setting is a misnamed Downforce setting, The machine is strong and normal flex type material cuts at a setting of 4-5 out of 30+
at the 30 end this will cut through thick card!
When cutting weak/rubbery materials the force(thickness) is likely to be 1-2 but as the cutter is slow a newish blade is needed. With a blade that is not sharp enough the material will pucker as it cuts.

Interesting poit Alan as greaseproof paper has been puted as an alternative to teflon for a long time. I will look for this siliconised baking sheet online as I don't think I have seen it at my local superrobber "ASDOR"

If you message us your details then we can send you some siliconized parchment paper to compare to the greaseproof.

I've sent you a cheeky little pm.
Are you, was it Helen?

Seems that ASDOR do 1 combined item, Tesco do both and the greaseproof really is waxed paper, the ASDA one appears to be Siliconised paper, I don't have a local asda oops!
Depending on what your doing Teflon (tm) sheets which are PTFE coated glassfibre sheets last ages are washable and make great baking sheets for Choux pastry and biscuits :biggrin:

Thanks for the update Alan, I will be going there today to look around.

I bought some Silicon based baking Sheets in Lidl last week. 99p for 30. Also got some once at the QC Store again in sheet form.

Work well and better than Greaseproof. They recommend Butchers paper in the States, would need either a friendly butcher/Deli or whosesaler for this though I would think.

Yolo very kindly sent me some of their silicone paper to try.
Thank you Yolo.
Did you get my pm as I didn't get a reply

Think this thread needs bumping to the top , only because im about to buy an OKI 511 and need to know what works with it!!!

Ive been trying some Yolo papers with my Epsom inkjet with pretty good results but would like to try the no weed type of papers now . Seem to be spending more and more time on clothiong and less on signs !!!! but the clothing side is good so I dont mind lol
