There are ways to 'fix' the image, but most change the hand of the fabric. There is a wealth of information about laser printing on fabric on the web these days so go take a look (be sure to check the date of the article though).
Thank you I don't know know why I don't think of checking web sites first but I see so much info on this site that I just love it!
