Even for dye ink I was really impressed compared to the first couple transfers ive tried..  I was disappointed with the print quality on the C120

Is the difference in quality because of the lack of the other two ink colors

4 color vs 6 :thumbsup:?

Thats the only thing I can guess. I printed using the same program/computer and settings but my dye ink printer has a better print quality.. Im going to wash them a couple times this weekend to see if the dye ink versus the pigment ink makes a difference

Washed the shirts today.

The one from my Dye printer which intitially the colors looked better smudged and blurred after washing.. The shirt is essentially bad now.

The Pigment ink printer held up to the washing although it does look a little faded..

OK, now I'm thinking of getting a laser printer for my transfers. Right now I use Paropy light and Dark transfer paper and an epson 1280 with CIS dye ink. I don't like the quality to much but it works.

What laser printer do you have Nonabelle and which one do you recommend? My wife has been wanting one for years to do altered book transfers :thumbsup:? But up until recently they were to expensive.

(we also use a 1400 for our dye sub IQ ink but thats a different story)
