Just wondering if anyone is experiencing problems with TrueVis inks not setting properly on printable heat transfer material?
Using Roland VG-540, Versaworks Dual.
A few examples of what I've tried so far;
Stahl's SportsFilm - No problems with this one. Prints & transfers perfectly but is much more expensive.
Siser ColourPrint PU - Generic heat transfer profile doesn't work, print is blotchy. Will only print at high quality, Generic Vinyl 2. Transfers to garment fine.
Siser ColourPrint/Stahl's ColourPrint Classic - (pretty sure these are the same product). Generic heat transfer profile, prints perfectly at standard quality. Let prints dry at least twelve hours..under fans for a few hours too. Problem is after pressing, when removing transfer film a good lot of ink is being pulled up with it leaving the image badly faded looking..have attached image of this.
I've tried different pressure & heat settings, letting film cool before removing and numerous different printing profiles for this material but to no avail.
Any ideas/insight much appreciated!
