Heat Treansfer Inkset & Prefilled Carts
 
HEAT TRANSFER WITHOUT SUBLIMATION

This new inkset has some colors that have been formulated to have a higher resistence to sublimation, a higher water resistence after application and the broadest color gamut available in a heat transfer ink set. No profile is required with Epson ultrachrome printers.

This ink works great with our Glow in the Dark Transfer paper, as well as T-Jet and O-Jet transfer papers. We believe this to be a better ink then our current and very popular Perpetual Arrchival ink, often used for Heat Transfers. Give it try and let us know what you think, we're sure you'll like it.

Available in 4oz, and pint quantities, gallons available upon request.

Heat Transfers for Color Fabrics
 
FAST AND EASY T-SHIRT TRANSFERS

O-Jet heat transfer paper is manufactured for use on light or dark colored Cotton Blend, 100% Cotton, and Synthetic fabrics. Cartoon characters and other brilliant images jump to life.

MIS O-Jet, Opaque Heat Transfer Paper, is available in 8.5" x 11" size and works great with commercial heat presses, we do not recommend this paper for use as an Iron on Transfer. We have produced a number of transfers with our Clam Press and the results are impressive.

We recommend our HT (Heat Transfer) ink for use with this paper and transfer method. The pressing process can produce a glossy finish or matte finish depending on whether or not a silicone sheet is used. Details on the heat transfer process can be obtained by reading the Opaque Transfer Paper Instructions.

THE NEXT GENERATION OF BLACK & WHITE INKS

Paul Roark has created a new MIS Black & White Inkset, UT-3D. This inkset is designed for use with ICC Profiles instead of Photoshop Curves, so that paper profiles can be easily made.
