Yes i know i forgot to mirror it was just printing on to plain a4 just to get ink to come through, as set up printer and cis and cyan wasnt coming through, when it did i thought id try see what it came out like on sub paper i got with my full set up as was dull and odd on a4.
So tried on sub paper and had a dodgy vest so tried to see if looked brighter than what it looked like on either paper

What percentage polyester is the vest? Do you have profile installed? Which subli paper?

None 100% cotton.
I have 2 installed but only tried one on sub paper as yet tried both on plain a4 but look odd so assumed it looke better once transferred.
The paper was but of the kit i brought in 2012 but only just thought about trying sublimation as was living with gf at her parents and only had our bedroom to use so had pc and vinyl cutter and press set up then had 2 daughters and got our own place now setting everything up but moneys tight so using it but brought proper ink and they gave me to icc to try next month ill order better paper as not even sure what side to print on this stuff

You need a high polyester content in your garment for sublimation.

You need good ink, good sublimation paper, and an ICC profile to make the colours right - there's lots of ways to go about those things, depending on budget, and technical ability. Do have a good look around the forum, as everything you'll want to know at this stage will already have been asked, and answered many many times. A good thread to look for is an FAQ thread titled "What printer"

Thank you justin for the info
That being said i was just trying out a print and didnt want to waste anything good hence i used a baby grow that was faulty and not any good for vinyl

I have been having good look around was gonna print the pic of the woman and all the colours that was posted but lost the post as was on phone when see it but when tried on pc cant find even with doing searches ive got good ink just brought it and a cis and £50 + worth of blanks this month and thought i may as well use the paper i got and buy more next month as its only a hobbie for now im not making money on it so cant afford to buy everything at once wanted to try mugs but cant warrant purchasing 32 at once as cant afford or space to store and on ebay there 4-6 pound each inc delivery
