- White fabric gives the best color; cream color looks good for antique images.

Fabric Printing
- Check fabric sheets for loose threads, wrinkled sheets or paper edges peeling can cause printer jams.
- Place one fabric sheet in the paper tray at a time.(check your printer) My preference is one sheet at a time.
- Test printer for the quality of the cartridges; add new ones if necessary. Test by printing on paper first then the fabric sheets.
