Thumbs up Using Printed Treasures Peel N Stick Inkjet Printable Fabric Sheets

Instructions:

1. On your computer, prepare image to be printed.

2. Set printing parameters at "Best" for the print quality and "Plain Paper" for the paper type. (TIP: We recommend you use standard inkjet color inks rather than special photo inks. Photo inks are designed for best results on glossy photo paper and will not yield vibrant images on Printed Treasures®.)

3. Print first on regular printer paper to test ink coverage, image clarity, size and placement.

4. Cut (do not pull) any loose threads from the edges of the fabric sheet.

5. Load fabric sheet in printer tray so image prints on fabric side. Follow your printer's directions for loading instructions.

6. Print image.

7. Allow ink to dry completely, approximately one minute.

8. Trim printed image to desired shape.

9. Slowly peel paper backing from printed image. (TIP:If the image becomes stuck to itself during handling, grasp any loose edges and firmly pull it apart. The peel & stick sheet will not tear and can still be used.)

10. Using very little pressure, position image on your project surface in the desired location.

11. Once you are sure you have the image positioned correctly, press it firmly in place with your fingertips, making sure to smooth out any air bubbles. Care for your Finished Projects: Printed Treasures® Peel & Stick Inkjet Fabric Sheets are NOT machine washable. Fading from light exposure is dependent on the quality of printer inks. For best results, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.

Additional Tips on using Peel & Stick Sheets: Always print first on regular printer paper to test ink coverage, image clarity, size and placement. When using Peel & Stick to cover a 3-dimensional object like a box, book, photo frame, etc., constructing a paper template with your image printed on it first will prevent wasting Peel & Stick Sheets. The template can then be used to mark cutting lines on your printed fabric sheets. If your top-loading printer is having difficulty picking up the Peel & Stick sheet, place one sheet of regular printer paper behind the Peel & Stick sheet when loading the paper tray.
