Printing and Heat Transfer Instructions
RECOMMEND APPLICATIONS
White or light colored fabrics in 100% cotton.
PRINTING
Print using the supplied ChromaBlast Driver program only.
The print side of ChromaBlast media is opposite the ChromaBlast logo.
For the Epson C88/C88+/D88+, place print side face up in
the printer tray.
Mirror Image: Check this box in the ChromaBlast Driver to ensure the
image prints in reverse and that text appears correctly when image is
transferred. If your image is already reversed in your graphic program,
leave this box unchecked.
TRANSFERRING THE IMAGE USING A COMMERCIAL HEAT PRESS
1. If desired, you may trim the non-printed area before transferring,
leaving .25 in. margin around the printed area.
2. Place garment on the heat press. Cover with ChromaBlast paper
with image face down.
3. Press image according to proper pressure, heat, and time
settings.
4. Peel the paper off the shirt while the shirt is still hot using an
even motion.
5. Stretch the image area while the shirt is hot from both left to right
and top to bottom to reduce the hand.
HEAT PRESS SETTINGS
Pressure: Heavy. If using a pneumatic press, set the pressure
to 60 psi.
Temperature and Time: 350°F (176°C) for 45-60 seconds
Due to variations in cotton garments and in heat presses, time
and temperature can be adjusted for preferred performance up
to 400°F for 25 seconds. Some scorching may occur, but will
wash out.
