Directions
T-Print™ CMYK is a water-based pigment inkjet ink designed exclusively for EPSON® based print head inkjet-to-garment machines. It is designed to print directly on light colored 100% cotton fabric with excellent brightness and washfastness. It can be printed directly on 50% polyester/50% cotton fabric with good brightness and washability. This ink can be printed on dark 100% cotton garments that have first been pretreated with T-Print™ Pretreat and then printed with T-Print™ Bright White ink.
CARE: GENTLY AGITATE BULK INK SYSTEM BOTTLE PERIODICALLY AND BEFORE USE. This ink has been specially formulated to have minimal if any pigment settling but over long periods settling or drying can occur in the ink system or in the ink lines. This can be corrected by slightly agitating the ink every few days and performing a head cleaning cycle every day or two if the printer is not in regular use. If the printer is not in use for an extended period of time, additional head cleanings may be required and possibly a Power Cleaning.
CURING: If cured properly prints will be very washfast. Use a standard heat transfer press set with light pressure and cure printed garments for 90 seconds at 330°F (166°C). If excess humidity is present or if garments are damp cure for 120 seconds. During the cure process use either a Teflon cover sheet or silicone treated baking pan liner to keep the ink from getting on the heating element. If using a conveyor textile dryer you MUST achieve these times and temperatures. Always do wash tests and verify your drying temperature.
For best results and brighter prints, prior to printing - place the garment in a heat transfer press and close the heating element for a few seconds to flatten the fibers and dry the fabric.
RISK: Harmful if swallowed.
WASHABILITY: Wash garments inside out in cold water and use a delicate or low heat dryer setting. Poor washability is generally a result of not following the drying times and temperatures. On dark shirts poor washability can be caused by too much pretreatment or from drying the pretreatment (prior to printing) using a slick Teflon sheet or silicone treated baking pan liner. The slick surface may not allow the ink to adhere properly. For best results use a non-silicone treated pan liner on top of the garment when drying the pretreatment - prior to printing. Read and follow the directions on the container of T-Print™ Pretreat for the best results.
CLEANING: This ink is waterbased and can be cleaned up using water.
STORAGE: Keep ink tightly capped in a 50-100°F (19-38° C) area. DO NOT FREEZE.
DISPOSAL: Dispose of in accordance with Federal, State and Local regulations.
WARRANTY: There is no warranty or implication of a warranty on this product. Sellers only obligation shall be to replace such quantity of product deemed to be defective. The degree of print brightness is a product of the quality of the printing machine (all nozzles firing), correct print resolution, and number of head passes, etc. Wash tests must be performed and user must determine the suitability of this product for commercial application.
