Leta....I, first, set the ink with a hot iron (non-steam) after letting it sit for 10 mins from the printer. Then, I ran cold water over it until saturated, then blotted with paper towel, then ironed until dry (without steam). No smears, smudges, or color runs. It is still crisp printing so I think you'll do Ok to color fix. You could try on a sample. I didn't buy EQ...I forgot what brand.
