Hi, Can anyone help?

Excited to get started printing some canvas bags but no instructions included with my heat press.. I've had a go, but prints are coming out pale..

I've been pressing at 180 for 45 seconds... (was just a guess from other websites)

Also, should I be placing anything inbetween my bags when pressing, and do I need protective paper underneath or on top of the bag..

Sorry if these are blonde questions.. but then again I am! LOL

Thanks in advance... but please hurry as sooooo excited!

What are you using for the print transfer ?

I'm printing on a riccoh dye sub printer. sorry, can't remember model number..

If it's a standard canvas bag sublimation isn't going to work as far as I know

You're kidding me... I've just bought all the kit! I explained to BMS that I wanted to print bags...

If you got the bags off BMS then thats fine. Whichever bag it is then they have the time and temp on the site

Err no I didn't..... Noooo!!!

If they're cotton you won't be sublimating onto them im afraid..

Thanks for your help guys... told you I was blonde...!

Have managed to get a refund on the bags I've ordered as they've not yet been dispatched!

Phew...
