Cure the print. Carefully remove the shirt from the Shirtboard and cure the 5.

print. Keep in mind, White ink will need to be cured longer than standard

colors. Cure in a conveyor dryer or Heat Press. (See page 59- Curing Your

Garmentsforspecicdetails)

If using a Heat Press, place a silicone treated

piece of parchment paper (a common

baking pan liner) over the print and close the

press. When you open the press, peel the

paper immediately. The paper can be used a

number of times before it becomes too

wrinkled to use.

You will only use the silicone treated paper •

for curing after the entire print has been completed. You risk ruining a shirt

if you use silicone paper in the Pretreatment phase.

Important Point

When printing gradient images with White ink, you should have two versions of

the artwork. One version will have a White background and the other will have

a Black background. These two les can be created in Photoshop, Adobe

Illustrator, CorelDRAW or even in FastARTIST. If you use another program, simply

save or export the les as a JPEG le at 250 DPI resolution for the nal print size

and Import these les into FastARTIST.

There is an excellent video tutorial on “Underbasing with Two Versions of

Artwork” on the T-Jet Support page.

This Chapter of the Manual is designed to provide a brief Overview of the

process for printing White ink onto a T-Shirt or other garment. Please consult your

FastARTIST User’s Manual for more detailed instructions and specic Hints and

Tips.

Please DO NOT attempt to print ANY image until you have read and familiarized

yourself with FastARTIST and FastRIP, including their uses and capabilities.
