T shirt transfer paper

[jockey]

Can anyone recommend some t shirt transfer paper, I need to print on red black and white t shirts. I did buy some from Tesco but its not too good! TIA

You need a t-shirt transfer paper specificly for Dark colour T-shirts - they sell it in PC world and places like that alternatlvely I have bought it online from a company called phoenix direct for the school that I work in - it is like most things though the more you spend on it the better quality it is, so for personal use i tend to go for HP or Dcardi. Hope this helps

as i prof printer, it depends also on teh quality of your t shirt and printer, not just the paper.
my fav pale paper comes from asda, and has irons on the back that change colour, v easy to use!
dark paper must be brought on line or at a specialistshop )hobby craft/pc world)
get a good quality printer
t shirts should be washed withour fabric softener it makes the cooton absorb better, best t shirts are fruits of the loom, which are often used y proffesionals....
if you are doing these for a disney trip...dont! i ended up doing 14 each (14x5=too many) works out an expensive (if funny) hobby!!

In the past i've had some (light and dark paper) from WH Smith which has always been ok, recently i bought some off ebay, only done a small test patch but that looks ok too. TBH, you don't get that many wears from a transfer t-shirt, mine always look tatty after a few washes - but that could just be me?!

As Scojos says the quality of your printer may affect the print quality (ink bleeding etc) - depending on your model you may be able to select transfer paper as a print option

Don't forget to 'flip' your image before you print - light paper only
