Printing ?

[danetter]

I just bought a new printer all in one Canon mx340. I had a Lexmark x75 all in one. I got a new laptop computer at Christmas and of course my printer is not compatible with my laptop. Last year when we went to Disney and made all our shirts I was able to print from my Lexmark using tshirt transfer printing setting and then flip the design back to normal as I was using Amy's transfers. This new printer has a the tshirt transfer option but I can't find where to flip the design back to normal without just printing on using regular paper setting. Has anybody got this particular printer or know what I can do to get it to print the design without it flipping?

TIA,Danette

Are you using the tshirt transfer option as a print quality setting? Or as a "paper" kind of setting? I found that the best option for me when printing on Amy's transfers to almost any printer (Canon included) is to tell the printer (under Print Settings/Paper Type) that I'm just using some sort of high quality presentation paper and to print at the highest quality - as opposed to telling it I'm using T shirt transfer paper because then it tries to be helpful and flip it over for me. Usually telling it you're using high quality paper for a presentation boosts the print quality to what it would - or better - for a T shirt transfer.

I've also found that if you drill down in the print setup menu there is almost always a place to turn mirroring on or off. You might have to do it from inside your app as opposed from the Control Panel but I think you should be able to find it under one of the Advanced settings somewhere. Good luck!
