Not done any in so long!!!

What are the heat press settings for printing to t-shirts?

The paper is Xpres XP4072A - When I click for details on the Xpres website - nothing happens for me!

Cheers

Would it not be wise to check the suppliers website to see if they give guidelines for the settings?

Thanks for that,

Someone turned up with one of those high wicking 100% polyester shirts - I'm guessing the same settings?

Cheers

It was just an 'off the shelf' 100% poly shirt. The paper was by Xpres.
