Heat with a press
Place the garment (T-shirt) on the pressing machine to settle the ink.
• Avoid contact of printed area with the white area. The wet ink may smear
the white area.
• Use a special pressing machine. Extra-high temperature may burn the
material. The desired fastness to washing may not be obtained when an iron
is used for the optimum setting condition cannot be maintained easily.
• The time interval between after plotted the garment (T-shirt) and before
performing the posttreatment should be always at a regular time length. If
the time interval differs at each time, it may cause color differences between
the plotted garments (T-shirt). Make sure to perform the posttreatment after
drying the garment completely, or the inks absorbed by the disposal paper,
and it may cause the color differences on the plotted garment.
• When used discharge liquid, be sure to heat by pressing machine within 5
minutes after printing. Otherwise effect of discharge decrease.
STEPS:

• The heating condition varies by the T-shirt
material or the performance of the heater.
Determine the optimum condition carefully.
• The fastness to washing varies by the T-shirt
material or post-print treatment. Determine
the optimum condition carefully, and verify in
a color fastness test.
• Color fastness and color development are
greatly affected by the work environment
(room temperature, heater temperature).
Printing under the identical work condition is
highly recommended.
