God Bless You. I have been searching for a video that actually explains the difference and what to do. Thank you so much for taking the time out to do this video.
So it looks like the transfer paper for light colors actually transfers the ink to the fabric, but the paper for dark colors is basically a decal that sits ON the fabric. I say this based on the fact that you turn the one for light colors ink side down, and use the one for dark ink side up. Therefore it would be interesting to see comparisons between the transfer paper for darks and printable HTV. Thank you for doing this experiment and showing it!
This is the best guide and summary of transfer papers. Nowhere could I find a description of what impression the pressed print is on the material and whether it appears to be plastic or squeezes into the material. Great tutorial :)
It is also interesting that both companies have been well-known paper manufacturing companies for many, many years (more than 40), and now have gotten into this.
Love these experiments. Super informative and fun to watch! Also, I really appreciate that you took the time to emphasize the difference in transfer tapes. As a newb, you probably just saved me from ruining my new heat press! 😅
Wooooooooow wooow I like you videos you know mam I had been watching for these programs for 6 months this is the first time I can pick many informations now .so great you are rock, thanks a lot thanks a million,
hi Angie, I have had so much trouble using Transfer paper, I do not mirror, but sometimes my cricut will cut it mirrored so a waste of paper and ink. I did not know there was a light and dark Mirror setting. thank you for this. NOW I know to mirror for dark. strange.
Think if & when I feel ready for this technique/material it will be with the wallah product! Love the cupcake design. Thank you again Angie for this educational video!!!
Hi Angie, I just watched your video and would like a bit of advice/clarity. Which printable heat transfer paper would you suggest for heather gray material? I would prefer one for light fabric because of the way it feels and blends into the shirt. However, I know the paper for dark fabric shows up more vibrantly most of the time. I just don't like the way it looks. And it sometimes leaves a white trim around the edge. Please help. Thank you! 💞
Great review! I have only ever used a white or clear version that you can pick up from Walmart. They were okay but you can always see a bit of the white or clear film around the edges. Thanks for this review and examples. 😊💙
Will this do on a canvas? So relieve that transfer papergo well with inkjet ink. I bought a sublimtion paper and can’t use itas i need a sublimation printer 😣
I have a question about the light transfer papers with the bubbles… I didn’t see this addressed in your video. Did they leave a glossy sheen around/between the bubbles? The transparent parts? I’m having such a hard time working around that issue. Thanks!!
Hello I have a question so I did 2 shirts one white shirt and one black shirt but for some reason I’m getting note book paper lines in my image I cut my did a print and cut and u can see lines throughout my image is there any way u could help me out ?
My guess would be your print settings. Make sure you are set to high quality and turn off fast printing. You might also try a matte paper setting if you are still having issues.
Hi there. I'm just starting off with fabric designs/printing and my problem seems to be with the graphics I'm attempting to print. Somehow, they all print with some kind of border around them, what I don't want. Do you use graphics software (either personal or online) that allows features like border/background removals? Other? Thanks! =).
@@AngieHolden Remove backgrounds, yes. Removing borders in final design I haven't been able to find. If I want an image/design with a background the border comes along. But 95% of garment design prints do not have borders. How is this achieved? I literally started this Monday with an inkjet printer, heat transfer paper and domestic iron! My graphics editor is online. Any advice? Thanks! =).
This video is for heat transfer paper. You are talking about sublimation. You need sublimation ink in a sublimation printer for that to work. Just the paper alone will not work.
what about the HEATLESS transfer paper can you do a tutorial of how to use it? I purchased the Joelle easy image HEATLESS transfer paper and when I went on their website and created a design when I went to print it out the instructions stated to select the light colored fabrics so it mirrored the wording and images but the way it peels off the transfer paper it doesn't seem like it'll fix the image and text to unmirror when it is transfered onto the tshirt
How do print a solid white on your inkjet printer? Do you need to buy a white ink cartridge? I don’t think they sell one for my printer. Do I need a special printer?
This comparison/tutorial vid was the BOMB! Thank you so much🙏I really appreciated all ur tips & tricks and u really are good at just getting to the point & gettin it done😄Thankyou. Defs have a new subscriber here😁
Hi Angie, when I print the colour appear fine and as it should look, but when heat transferred everything's turning pink? Can you help? Using A-Sub transfer paper and BVH sublimation ink, thank you.
Maybe you can help me, I have heat transfer paper and I have tried to print out an image that is a maroon kind of color and every time I try to print it out on heat transfer paper the maroon looks almost like a brownish black… Do you know why this could be happening? When I print out the image on glossy photo paper the maroon looks perfectly fine it’s only when I print on either regular copy paper or on heat transfer paper
Hello what is the brand for the transfer tape? I put offset everytime i have small parts that is not attached to my images. Its a struggle to take out one by one special if its small lol
Using the Wala Light paper at 350 for 20 seconds per the site instructions but the paper is sticking to the T-shirt and some of the image lifted. What am I doing wrong?
It does call for heavy pressure. Not sure what you are using for the application but that would be the issue. I actually do not like the light as well as the dark because of these types of issues.
Angie, Have you ever tried the Siser Color Print Easy to do your infusibles on cotton shirts? I have on the internet checking these out. They appear that they would be almost better that the infusible shirts, they can even be printed on a regular printer and not a sublimation printer. Just checking. You always know what you are doing, and I love those mistakes you tell us about. I don't make those, I MAKE MY OWN, but they are the same as yours. Thanks for the videos.
@@AngieHolden Yes thank you so much for your reply. But say you don't have sublimation paper but you do have a sublimation machine and you don't have a regular inkjet printer, all the stores are out of sublimation paper but you do find heat transfer paper available. So you resort to heat transfer printing. Can you use the same sublimation machine printer ink on a heat transfer paper to do this heat transfer printing? In short I want to know if it's safe to do heat tranfer printing with sublimation ink/printer?
Hi thanks for all your info. Just getting into this and wanted to know what program you use to make images and if it’s free or not? Thanks I really appreciate it.
Thank you for your very thorough videos, however: I am confused about one point. Are you using an inkjet printer with inkjet ink or sublimation ink? Thanks
Great tutorial! Question, what machine did you use to cut the designs before you used them? Also, on another video, I noticed a vinyl transfer with just words on and it looked like the vinyl had not been cut. Would you please let me know what machine you used to cut the heat transfer paper, and what was the vinyl used for the words and did you have to cut it? Thank you!
There are a few different things. For ironing on to a shirt, you have regular HTV or iron on, printable HTV, and printable heat transfer paper. All of those are different. Then for adhesive vinyl there are also printable options.
Supplies used are linked in the description below each video. On computer, click show more. On mobile, click the arrow to expand the description or swipe up on the video.
Thank you for the video! This is really helpful as I learn how to use printable HTV! What heat transfer tape do you use? I've looked at your description and didn't see it listed but doesn't mean it's not there lol
I didn't list it on purpose as it isn't the best! I don't want to recommend this brand as I would like to do a comparison and find a brand that works better.
I would get the one for dark then and use for light colors too. I really did not like the one for light colors! I think you would be disappointed in it.
The dark version you have to print in the correct direction and pull off your pieces to add them to your shirt. If you have a lot of small pieces, you would want transfer tape to help you move them in the correct orientation.
I’m having the hardest time getting my printable htv to stick to the transfer tape. Are you saying to hover the press over the transfer tape while it’s sticking to the htv t get it to release?

My question, can you use that Wala paper with any printer to do t-shirts? I don't have a heat transfer machine yet.
These can be used with any printer but you will need heat to add them to a shirt.

Hi! If I wanted to print on a bucket hat, what type of transfer paper do you recommend?
I would recommend HTV for a simple design or printable HTV for a more complex.

Probably a washi sheet setting. You may have to play with the setting.
@@AngieHolden thankd so much. You're the best
Hey Angie i had a question when doing heat press should we do png or jpeg i haven’t been able to find an answer

What is the difference of iron on transfer paper for light color and iron on transfer paper for dark color? Can I use tranafer paper for both ?
They are intended to be used on light/dark colors of fabric. I find that the dark works a bit better.
Dose this go for cotton t shirt as well
Yes.

what kind of format do we need for heat transfer paper? I meant PNG or EPS?
You want it to be printable so PNG is best.
Love all the tips Angie thanks! I'm looking to create tshirts like the one you are wearing lol. What have you used on it please? tks in advance
That is heat transfer vinyl. You can see a basics guide for it here: ruclips.net/video/-S6DzXe5p64/видео.html
Why is transfer tape used on the heat transfer paper?
The dark version you have to print in the correct direction and pull off your pieces to add them to your shirt. If you have a lot of small pieces, you would want transfer tape to help you move them in the correct orientation.
Is this regular ink or sublimation ink?
This is regular ink. You can see how it compares with sublimation here: ruclips.net/video/vo4y-g1z2HY/видео.html&lc=Ugyc2XycKDtJLoMAwuV4AaABAg

Will it not work with regular htv? Do you need to print it?
Tip… loosen the vinyl from the paper by hovering the steam near the application before peeling
