let us know how it works
I used to be able to print right onto the fabric with my Dell printer, but now that I have an HP printer the fabric gets jammed. What is your technique for doing this?
Some printers accept the fabric better. I use a Lexmark, and have had no problem.

I haven't heard of the product originally mentioned? How is it used? I have used C. Jenkins miracle fabric sheets (already treated, backed and ready to put through the printer) with good results.
You print directly on these sheets then iron them on to the fabric or wood or metal. It claims that when you iron it on fabric, you don't have the usual stiffness that you have with other transfers. I am going to try it this week and see. I will let you know!
