What makes the best heat transfer? Color Laser or Ink Jet?
The newest Color Laser heat transfers actually wash better than the existing Ink Jet transfer papers. But the Ink Jet transfer is softer to the hand after it is washed compared to the Color Laser transfer. Although Ink Jet printers are inexpensive, the cost to make a transfer however is much greater. Both for the paper as well as inks that are used. Additionally, the Ink Jet printers are considerably slower than Color Laser printers. If you are going to be making a more than part time effort at decorating items for resale, we recommend Color Laser printing. They give you the ability to print on almost anything, including ceramics and the cost for Color Laser printers is now under $800.
