Hi Brett,
socialgiraffe or Rogerc for versacamm
i have a oki laser and could do the prints on laser paper but then again it would all depend on the image,

Hi Dragon,

I didn't reply as the 'self weeding' bit confused me.........I'm easily confused. I can print quality transfers on vinyl if that helps. Drop me a PM if it's any good for you.

Sorry i shouldve been a bit clearer ok what i need are the transfers that are not on a block of papaer ie yoylo transfers are basically an a4 sheet that is just printed the image i have is for about 4 colours but i dont want all the back ground paper on it in imagine screen print but in a transfer ....heck this is difficult to describe if you know the weird fish brand of t shirts with their funnmy designs i mean that type of thing

I love Weird Fish clothing, wearing some now.. I received a sample pack today of this 'No Weed' paper - I have been getting my head around how it works. you need 2x papers for each job, One to print the image onto then another sheet you press the image onto - and then press that onto your garment.
I think this is the type of thing you are after, need a Lazer printer though as you pointed out. I think this is because the lazer puts down Toner which is transferred between the papers - obviously Ink wouldn't transfer. it's impressive.

It was indeed from them Dave, I wont be able to print anything to test until I get into our Radio Station on Thursday as that's the only Lazer printer I have access to at the moment. I love the idea though.

This is 'Image Clip' paper - do a Youtube search on the process, its interesting. there is a 'White version' and a 'Colour' version.

As long as the image is of high enough quality they could be done on a Versacamm and contour cut. Basically you get the image only and not the image printed on an A4 (or whatever size)sheet.

I know the stuff you mean nik its along the same lines as majic touch wow 7.1 paper i found this a bit finicky but that was a while back ive noticed a few companies doing it now so they probably have perfected it a bit . roger thats beginning to sound like the stuff i need a quote for dont suppose you have a picture example you can post up
