Default Printing on Fabric-HELP!

I am trying to print some sayings on some squares of muslin for the front of a quilt. I have turned up the resolution of the print, wait 24hrs, set it with cold water 1/4 cup snuggle fabric softener to 1 cup water, dry iron it dry. I test washed a square and the ink washed away. At first I tried ironing the fabric to freezer paper but it jammed in the printer so after many trial & errors I found that if I adhered the fabric to paper (computer) with basteing spray they went they the printer just fine. Still washes out. A friend of mine does this all the with freezer paper & no problems. So do you think it's a chemical reaction with the basteing spray?
