Hello everyone! Wow am I having major problems. I have been usuing transfer paper for a couple years, but I always use the transer paper that doesn't require you to flip the image. When I print out the photos, I use my HP image zone. This is the only way I know how to make 5x7 desings. I am making childrens sweatshirts for Christmas have ruined 3 pages of transfer paper because I have printed them as a photo and not a flipped image. I can not figure out how to mirror the image. Should I use a different program? What am I doing wrong? Please help!!!!!

I had some problem finding where to flip my images, too. I don't have the HP image zone, but am using an HP printer. Do you go through a "printing wizard"? If you do, when you get to the "document properties" screen look for the tab that says "advanced". Click that tab and go down the list until you see "mirror image" and if it says "off" change it to "on". I used this feature when I was printing a couple of my images and it worked really well. It didn't change the image on my preview, but it printed out the way I wanted it to. Just follow the Printing Wizard instructions and you "should" get to the correct screen.
