hi
i have bought the epson SX535W for printing onto vinyl flex, I got this printer as was told i needed to use a printer which used durabrite ink, which this one does
BUT as u can see from the pic it is doing exactly the same as my other printers, the ink is just sitting on top[ of the flex??
What am i doing wrong??

could be totally wrong and miles away as i have never used this,so sorry if it sound stupid but it says "Printable flex comes in A4 sheets and in 500mm widths sold in linear metres. It comes complete with it own backing sheet so you can cut the top layer and peal off for application to garments."
Are you printing onto the backing sheet?
