The other brands on the market use specific paper or backing or processes to imprint an image depending on the substrate. You have to match the paper type to the item you’re going to produce .If you are using one of these brands you will need to make sure that you use the right paper for the material.
It doesn’t seem difficult to do, but this is a primary cause of the up to 30% wastage that was reported to us during our research. The wrong paper is used for the job so you print dozens of transfers that you cannot use, OR you don’t notice they’re the wrong ones until you start pressing the t shirt transfers onto shirts and they don’t look right or adhere properly, OR you actually deliver a job to a customer who complains when the images wash off the shirts.
Waste and mistakes aren’t the only drawback to too many papers. You also must keep inventory for every substrate – garment or object – you want to be able to print on. Inventory costs go up or you end up overnighting the correct paper for a job, which is very expensive.
