I have a canon inkjet. What print settings do you using what material for paper

I'll leave this for future viewers.... I've used this Transfer Paper with an Epson Ecotank & HP Instant Ink Deskjet printers. I've had the best results setting my Epson Ecotank printer settings to High Print Quality & using Premium Presentation Paper Matte as the Paper type setting. I've also had similar results with the Premium Photo Paper Glossy setting. For The HP Instant ink printers I use High Quality print setting & Photo Paper setting with best results. If using any setting, other than the Highest Quality print setting your printer has available, you will get a dull color finish and possible banding (stripes). Also try not to set paper type as Plain paper, since this will probably diminish the print quality to the transfer. Hope this helps! :)

Additional Tips: Allow these Transfers to completely dry (several hours) if possible, to avoid ink smearing/smudging. Make sure to place silicon protective sheet over design while pressing (never allow iron or heat press to make direct contact with Transfer). Also after being ironed or pressed to Garment, the Transfer will have a much brighter glossy look (looks sort of dull when printed on transfer sheet). Also a tip, that will help with transfer longevity.... after transfer is applied to garment, allow to cool. Then stretch garment mildy, causing transfer to stretcth side to side, not too much stretching as to cause permanent damage, but enough to stretch transfer and then allow it to shrink back to shape. Then after give another quick 30 seconds of ironing complete transfer with silicon cover sheet if using iron, and 15 seconds or so if using a heat press with medium to firm pressure. This helps with transfer longevity especially when being placed in the wash (laundry).
