Recommended for use in dry-resin printers, Ricoh® copiers and Matan™ Sprinter, Matan™ Spark 1612
Printing Instructions
  • Reverse (flip or mirror) the image before printing.
  • In print driver, select image to be printed and preferred resolution. Use "laser paper/plain" selection.
  • Fan sheets of paper on all four sides to reduce static charge.
  • Load transfer paper so blank side receives image.
Preparing to Transfer
  • Preheat heat press to 375°F/190°C.
  • Trim away any unprinted paper, leaving 1/8" border around image.
  • Choose white or light-colored substrate made of 100% cotton, cotton/poly blend, or 100% polyester.
Transferring with Commercial Heat Press
  • Place wrinkle-free garment on press pad.
  • Place transfer on garment, image side down.
  • Press at 375°F /190°C with medium/high pressure for 15 seconds.
  • Remover from heat and peel transfer immediately.
Washing Instructions
  • Wash garment seperately (first time only). Turn inside out.
  • Machine wash cold with color-safe detergent. No bleach.
  • Remove promptly from washer to prevent bleeding. If bleeding occurs, rewash immediately.
  • Tumble dry with low heat. Add towels to facilitate drying.
  • If garment needs ironing, do not iron directly on transfer.
Storage and Handling
  • For best results, store paper in your location for 12-24 hours prior to use.
  • Store unopened in cool, dry place.
  • After opening, store unused paper in resealable poly bags.

TransferWear UltraSoft is recommended
for use in the following:

  • Ricoh® Laser Copiers
  • Alps®/Citizen®/Oki® Dry-Resin Printers
  • Matan™ Sprinter
  • Matan™ Spark 1612
  • Indigo® Digital Presses

Helpful Tips:

  • Often the first print from a dry-resin printer has white banding. Run regular paper first if this happens.
  • Never pull paper to remove it from a printer as it will cause rollers to realign.
  • Use "laser paper" setting. This allows you to place a number of sheets in the feed tray at once. With this setting, you will need to mirror the image in the print driver.
  • In order to minimize the possibility of the print head melting, or
    spreading the polymer film, use the following settings in driver:
    • Document Type: Photographs
    • Media/Quality: Iron-on Setting
  • If the printer accidentally prints on the platen, all subsequent prints will have small spots and poor print quality. To fix, open front door and slide print head assembly to one side. Use a strip of sticky packing tape and affix it to the platen. Rub the tape to affix it. Slowly peel off tape, and repeat until platen is clean.
  • Toners darken with heat, so images on transfer should be slightly lighter than normal. Increase brightness by 10% if image has flesh tones, dark shadows or heavy saturation.

Product Quality Assurance
CMW, Inc. conducts exhaustive testing on all its products, using
many types of substrates, printers, copiers, heat presses, irons,
and laundry detergents. However, it is impossible to duplicate
