Don't forget to print your design using a laser printer. This type of printing works best with the Transfer Marker, since laser printer ink transfers more easily.
Fix the design correctly on the surface to transfer images
Once the surface is ready, position the design on it with the printed image facing down. Make sure the design is well aligned and in the correct position, and if it contains text, always mirror it.
