Why Transfer Paper Quality Matters
Source:ZS Machinery Time:2016-08-16 Click:66 Times
Transfer paper is often treated as a consumable afterthought, but it decides as much about the final colour as the ink does.
Release. Paper has to let go of the dye cleanly at transfer temperature. Paper that releases slowly leaves colour behind on the sheet, which you see as a dull print.
Dimensional stability. Paper that cockles or stretches at 200 °C will not register accurately, and on long runs the print drifts off the edge of the panel.
Coating. A good coating holds the ink on the surface instead of letting it soak in. That gives sharper detail and less ink consumption.
Weight. Too light and the sheet distorts; too heavy and heat transfer through the sheet is slow and uneven.
Consistency. Changing paper mid-order changes your colour, even if the ink and machine settings are untouched.
The practical rule: choose the paper together with the ink, prove the combination on your own fabric, and then keep buying the same grade.
