Note: The recommended settings below may need adjustments for best results.
Settings will vary depending on the heat press brand, printer model, ink brand, paper
and atmospheric conditions.
2nd Note: The layers of soft paper towel achieve two goals: 1. it helps to
distribute the pressure evenly throughout the substrate; 2. it helps to trap
the ink that is dispersed outside of the edges of the substrate if there is an
overprint area or full bleed in the artwork.
