I did use an ink jet printer and I couldn't get the backing off even before I pressed it. I did get in touch with Printed Treasures. They reiterated that I should press with a warm iron and if that didn't work, I probably have an older package that came out before the "improved" sheets. I think I will soak the little sucker and then try to scrape off the paper. I will not let it win! Thank you all for your suggestion.
