Questions about transfer paper onto a Tshirt

Posted 5th Jun 2023
I want to print onto a transfer paper.

Can you use a normal standard printer or does it need to be printed on a specific printer type?

I'm going to use an iron to put it onto my t-shirt. Can I print it out and do it the next day or does it need to be ironed on immediately?

Any tips would be useful.

Thanks

    It's not just the ink that will transfer, it is the A4 size plastic film that coats the transfer paper.
    Online places will do custom prints on t shirts for about a tenner and give more professional results

    Have you any recommendations for specific companies? (edited)

    The transfer paper will tell which type of printer it is compatible with, and tell you how to use them properly (edited)

    A standard inkjet printer is what you need (definitely not a laser printer).

    I can't imagine there is a time issue between printing and transferring.
