Have you tried using the icolor 560 transfer on a 70% viscous bamboo/ 30% cotton shirt? I just tried on but had a slight problem during the cold peel part. Some of the image peeled off. The rest of it looked and felt great but I think the setting needs to be a little different for the fabric.
I've not tried using that blend. It's possible that the it needed a little more time on the press and not the fault of the fabric. It's pretty temperamental it seems. If I notice the image is peeling up, I'll try pressing it for a few more seconds. But it's not a foolproof method sadly.
Love your videos, still trying to work removing background from my purchased graphics… any suggestions or assistance you can give me. Thanks so much.
I upload and size my images in Canva. You can remove your background there as well. Then download it with a transparent background just to be sure.
Do you have to hand load 1 sheet at a time or can you load a stack of the sheets into the printer?
Sorry it took so long to reply! I tried stacking in the tray but it seemed to scratch the print side a little and I was paranoid about it so I went back to hand loading.
Hi I am running into issues after just purchasing the printer and going through the basics setup. We attempt to print an image and it prints the previously printed image over and over. Have you experienced this with the ProRip program or if its the printer model?
I've not experienced that. Are you seeing the image you want to print in the print preview window?
Thanks for the video, It is very helpful. Do you still use your 560? Have you branched out to other items like hard goods or temp tattooes? Have you tried other papers? If you have, I would love to see some videos on it. Thanks!
I do still have it. I don't use it very often and have only used it on shirts. If I'm doing hard surfaces I just do sublimation. Sorry.
@@UnderATexasSky No worries.
I just got a 560 and I have no idea what the settings are to set on the rip like the design you have there I blacked out the design but looks like there was no white on the back any idea thank you
Sorry it took so long to reply. It's very confusing. I know. Be sure when you click on "Job" tab in the display window- then "Color Adjust" you don't have "enable ink removal" clicked. Next click the "Jobs" tab at the top then "Production Plugins" choose KnockMeBlackOut- in the bottom window be sure you show the color of the the shirt you're doing for the background. You'll see how it will look on that color shirt. Hope this helps.
How many washes can these shirt designs handle? Like heat transfer vinyl is very durable to about 20-30 washes, vs ink transfers I really have no idea on? Would really like to get into something like this! Or Direct To Film. Thanks!
They say 35 or so washes. I think it depends on how large the image is. I would always wash in cold and hang to dry.
@@UnderATexasSky Thank you so much!!
Have you ever tried pressing a print onto glass or acrylic?
I have not tried to press on glass or acrylic. I did put it on neoprene koozies and it worked fine.
About how many transfers do you think you get from one set of toner? Also, if you can give me an estimate on how much your toner costs?
Andria- Uninet says that cartridges should yield 7,000 pages. I've made dozens of transfers and the needle has barely moved. It's a good thing because toner is really expensive. A set of all cartridges is around $1,000- YIKES. That's why I do sublimation as often as I can instead. But if someone wants a black tee- this is the best option I think.
are you using the regular toner that came with the printer
Yes. I'm using the white toner overprint set up. My white is the first cartridge in the front.
What am I doing wrong if when I go to peel the adhesive backing off the whole image comes off of the clear front piece of the transfer sheet?
Be sure you preheat your heat press before pressing the adhesive sheet to your image. Just close your press for about two minutes. Also, be sure to rub the image before peeling. Take a cloth and rub around for a a few seconds. And I've found that after pressing the adhesive sheet, turn it over and peel the transfer sheet from the adhesive sheet. It's more flexible and is less likely to "skip" when peeling. Hope this helps!! Blessings- Kelly
I'm still trying to get my settings right to create vibrant prints. It looks vintage after I press them.
I'm not sure what could be happening. When you click on "Jobs" do you have "enable ink removal" checked? This uses less ink by removing it from tiny holes in the image. That's the only thing I could think of that could cause a vibrancy issue. Hope this helps. Blessings- Kelly
Mines doesn’t peel off easily it’s like stuck to the shirt . I pressed part b 120 at 310 then on shirt 310 for 30 seconds and it’s super stuck to short when I pull off some of the picture tears off
I think it could be a settings issue. Be sure your heat press is pressing at the heat that's it's reading. It's possible the press is heating unevenly also. This is kind of delicate stuff and small problems can ruin it. If you keep having a problem, I'd contact the Uninet. Good luch! Blessings- Kelly
I have the same problem you describe. I already waste a lot of transfer paper 😭. Have you find a solution yet ? Any help I appreciate 🙏
Best video
Thank you so much!
Hi friend this is the 3 era time I believe I washed your video traing to understand what I'm doing wrong 😭 hope to find out. I did notice you put the shine side up and I was putting it down. Maybe that's the problem. Because the paper stick so hard to the clothes that is too hard.to remove it and it get damage.
Definitely put the dull side down when loading through the printer. The dull side is the print side. Be sure you don't press for too long. And use a steady fairly quick pull when peeling.
Ok so this makes me actually want to use my uninet lol. I’m scared to death of it right now.
It's very intimidating. And frustrating until you kind of get a feel for it. Follow me on TikTok at underatexassky. I do lots of tutorials there. Just relax and know you're gonna waste a lot of supplies at first but it gets easier. Blessings! Kelly
What pressure level do you have your press at?
Joseph- Sorry it took so long to reply! I press on medium pressure- about a 5 on my Hotronix Auto Clam.
My paper left like a glue like residue outline, what can I do?
It’s really hard to get the adhesive residue off. I just try to gently rub with a rough cloth. It’s important to trim around your image before pressing.
I tried to print a file png from Etsy but way too pixelated any advice? thank you in Advance
Maybe take the file and upload it into Canva and try to resize it there. Then download a transparent copy and try to print it from the pro-rip software. I'm not sure how you can sharpen an image. That's a little above my pay grade.
What is the name of the plastic thingy where u print the photo
I'm not sure I understand. The white toner printer I use is the Uninet iColor 560. The film is standard paper that is used with this printer.
Is this printer like sublimation printer?
This printer will actually print using sublimation ink but I use it specifically to create heat transfers. You'd need to change the ink to sublimation ink to use it for sublimation. I have a Sawgrass SG1000 to print sublimation images.
Does this printer require a lot of maintenance?
Brenda- Actually not in my experience. Now, I don't have a t-shirt business per say. I do make tees for customers but it's not my main merchandise. I've made probably 100 or more transfers and have never had any issues with the printer. There is a bit of trial and error learning to use it but it's been trouble free for me. Blessings- Kelly
@@UnderATexasSky thank you for your response. I just can't get past the cost of the consumables. It's all so pricey :(
When i did my final press it took the entire image of the shirt and stuck to my butcher paper
You should always use parchment paper when pressing- not butcher paper or regular blow out paper. The coating helps it to not stick.
