Thanks for informative video. What are your settings on the heat press for drying pretreat?

For pre-treat on my heatpresses I use 320 degrees with just a little bit of pressure.

Hey man, what DPI settings are you using?
Sadly my machine only goes up to 720x720, and I'm having a hard time getting these to turn out right.
Are you using 1440 DPI or 2880 DPI? That's looks like so much more ink that's put onto the sweatshirt compared to mine... wish mine would print that much.
To compensate, I'm just reprinting 4-5 times to get enough ink... but for gildan sweatshirts its just not enough
