T-shirt transfer sheets

When I called Visual (an authorized supplier of transfer material) and asked what Ricoh's the paper is approved for I couldn't get an answer. I tried to get references of Ricoh dealers using the paper and all I got were 6513 references. That was 6-8 months ago so maybe you can get better information now.

Jim/Art - thanks for the information. I spoke to another sales rep, at one of our other branches, and he runs transfer paper on the CL5000 without any hitches. He indicated that we should only run between 5-10 at a time because the heat drastically affects the paper once it gets too hot. I will be testing later this week.

That's great if you can get away with it. My service dept. would say that just because it will do it today is no guarantee that it will not have long term ramifications or feeding problems after things get alittle less new. I would tell the customer that there needs to be a multitude of plain sheets fed for every transfer sheet on average.

I have a customer who is in the process of buying a 7000 from us to do just this. Sorry I got in on this conversation so late but he said he deals with a company that used the 3800 and now uses the 7000 for the transfer sheets. I forget what he called the actual material but he swears by it.

If you can get the name brand it would be most helpfull

That would be a very hot item.

We used to use a media called "Fabrika" Tee-shirt Transfer material, when we were carrying the Toshiba Chromotouch copier. However, it was a wax transfer machine, didnt use a fuser.
And a fuser is the biggest obstacle in this application.
I mean these things rip up bad when using anything that turns sticky.

Any new infor on this, re: transfer material and machines used on?

Hey guys sorry I dropped out of the discussion, the kind of paper is a printable, weedable paper. T-shirt places us a weedable paper and this can be run through Ricohs 3800, 7000 printers. The company that sells this paper's name is Stahls.

We have here a 1224c, CL7000 and CL7100. We print on heat transfer paper for t-shirts for over 8 months, and it is OK. We use heat transfer paper from "The Magic Touch Colour Laser Transfer Systems", and the prints is very good and the RICOH machines is OK.
We print this type of paper only from by pass! Nobody from RICOH can tell you witch type of machine you can use for heat transfer paper, but from my experience with this 3 is OK.
Only XEROX tells you that DC12 is recommended for use heat transfer paper for t-shirts. We use DC12 before … exquisite machine … but very expensive also!
