Focus on Transfer Printing & Heat Presses Enhanced colour management and simplified workflow
CADLINK C
ADlink print software is recognised worldwide as specialising in white toner and ink management. Michael Chramtchenko, CADlink
Technology director of marketing, said: “Digital Factory OKI TT Edition provides a great deal of workflow advantages over print driver solutions and other RIP software options, but where the value really exists is in the automated handling of white toner usage when printing on dark substrates. Not only does it simplify the process a great deal, but it also reduces toner costs and improves the look and feel of transferred graphics.”
JESTER PRINTS Save time and money on tricky and time consuming jobs F
resh from a successful showing at Printwear & Promotion LIVE!, the staff at Jester Prints are busy making transfers for a raft of new customers as well as for long established clients.
Now in its 43rd year of transfer production the company primarily specialises in screen printed spot colour transfers but also produces full colour four colour process transfers using digital technology for short runs and full colour litho for long runs. Every type of transfer produced by Jester Prints arrives with the customer ready to use with no cutting, weeding or secondary processes needed.
Everybody who has invested in a vinyl cut transfer system, and many who have bought DTG equipment, will probably have also bought a transfer press to either apply the transfers
START 2 PRINT It’s time to step up your game T
ransfer printing can be a bit of a taboo subject when it comes to printing designs on to garments.
It can be very difficult to get perfect results and if you donʼt have a heat press that has even heat distribution then you are setting yourself up to fail, but that said equally as important is the transfer paper that you use. If you get both right, the results can be awesome. So basically if you arenʼt getting good results ask yourself first if your heat press is doing its job correctly and then ask yourself if you are scrimping and trying to save a few pennies on your transfer papers. If either isnʼt up to scratch, itʼs simple, bin them off and step your game up. Start 2 Print has actually just started to use

they've made or cure the prints from their DTG machine.
So those companies would have no further capital expenditure to use Jester transfers. Using readymade transfers when the job is too detailed to cut and weed, or too time consuming to use DTG, enables a printer to do jobs that he may otherwise turn away.
School leavers transfers are still very much in vogue but many printers who rely on transfers that they can cut and weed themselves turn that style of job away either because it's beyond what they're capable of producing or because they would take too long to cut and weed.
Save time and money in the long run by using Jester transfers for jobs that are too tricky or time consuming to cut and weed and use your vinyl cutter for the more straightforward jobs.
Digital Factory OKI TT Edition comes complete with professionally created colour profiles for widely used transfer media as well as providing advanced color management options ensuring the most vibrant colour prints every time. The software also provides streamlined, flexible production workflow support by including production plug-ins for image preparation as well as plug-ins that send jobs directly from design applications as well as supporting every commonly used file format including .pdf.
