For labels, I print on an HP inkjet. I iron a piece of fabric to a piece of freezer paper, cut to 8.5 x 11 and fold a piece of scotch tape across the top. I fingernail press a crease the tape at the top of the paper/fabric so it goes through the printer easily. Then I iron over the printed area. That seems to set the ink for me. I ran a sample under water to test and it didn't fade nor run. For photos, I pretty much follow how Gerbie does it. Good luck.
