* Prepare artwork and size transfer according to the size and shape of the product.
* Image must be produced in reverse or “mirror image” 
* Place a sheet of plain white paper on the press.
* If the product has a protective plastic covering remove it.
* Using heat resistant tape, secure the image with the printed side of transfer facing the product
* Lay the imprintable face up on the heat press so that you are pressing onto the transfer.
* Cover imprintable with parchment or paper 
* Press at 385 degrees F using Medium pressure (refer to chart  located in “Support and Instruction Link” for accurate time)
     – 4″x4″-6″x6″ panels 60-70 secs
     – 8″x8″-11″x14″ panels 80-95 secs (Endura fabric may be needed for large panels)
* When pressing is finished carefully remove the transfer paper and allow to cool on a clean surface

If you need to produce fine-art panels or if you need to produce big signage panels (that contains small text or graphics), you should use the LOW TEMP table. This table is based on lower temperatures. Benefits of using lower temperatures (175°C/345°F) are sharper output, less ghosting effects and a stable white point.

These transfer instruction guidelines were created using a Swing-Away GeoKnight Press, size 20″ x 24″/508 x 609.6 mm with pressure of 60 PSI. They represent the best, most general instructions we can provide. Please remember that heat presses may vary.  Check with your press manufacturer for any special concerns.  This information may change as we make continual improvements and refine our processes.  These instructions are guide lines only and are based on the inks, paper, and products we supply.   Your inks, papers, etc. may require adjustments in your time/temp settings.
