  beat paper to use

  Posted by Louise Helen on 9 May 2009 at 19:44

  Hi all,
  Can anybody tell me what would be the best paper to use?
  I use a sublimation set-up but need to print on a batch of 100% cotton bibs and was wondering if anybody can recommend a very good,soft to touch transfer paper, as you can not sublimate on 100% cotton.
  Thanks all,
  Louise. 🙂

  why don’t you make your life easier and go for polyester bibs?

  I would only they supplied the bibs for me to do.
  They don’t mind the iron on if it is soft to feel and not a hard plastic feel.
  thanks
  Louise. 😛

  I use xpres ink jet dark paper with genuine Epson inks but I’ve never been happy with the end result so wouldn’t recommend it 🙁

  Just make sure whatever paper you end up using washes really well at high temps or you could end up with a 100 ruined bibs 😕

  keep us posted on how you get on
