You are so welcome!

Can you please tell me which would be the right printer to use if we want to print our logo that has multiple colors on it on black, grey and green shirts. We would be making a lot of them.

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

That's a loaded question! To print on dark colored shirts, you'd really want something like a DTF printer, but they are pricey. A good option for you might be SupaColor: kzbin.info/www/bejne/anbcZmaJa9plbas

Just came here to ask what press that is!? I love it and matches all my craft stuff ❤

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

It's a WALApress from Heat Transfer Warehouse! I love it. heyletsmakestuff.com/recommends/15-x-15-walapress-htw/ (affiliate link) :)

Can I use glitter htv on top of polyester spandex blends? (77%/23%)

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

You could give it a shot, but the stretchiness of the spandex might cause issues.

[@mareerust2931]

Can you use any htv glitter vinyl

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

I think most glitter HTV works. You do need a lighter color because sublimation ink is transparent. And then there might be a handful of brands that don't work because they don't have the right poly content in the glitter.

Can you use PrintMate without owning a Sawgrass printer?

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

No, it's designed to interface directly with their printers-other printers don't have the same options.

Hello! Why do leave the bleed on or off? What is the difference?

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

Leaving the bleed on means that when your Cricut cuts around the edge of your design, you shouldn't have any white edges where it wasn't cut perfectly. Does that make sense? Definitely keep it on for a project like this!

[@lindsaybriggs3089]

@@HeyLetsMakeStuff when would you keep it off? Or should it always be on?

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

I keep it off if I'm not going to be cutting-so if I'm using Print then Cut for sublimation, for example. @@lindsaybriggs3089

[@lindsaybriggs3089]

@HeyLetsMakeStuff so for print and cut you leave the bleed off?

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

When I am actually cutting, I leave it on. When I am only printing, I turn it off. Does that make sense?@@lindsaybriggs3089
