Besides purchasing transparency film for laser printer, is there anything else I'll need outside of this kit to print a small black design on fabric?

You should have everything you need to make a print. I use an inkjet printer.

I've not found a way to do anything except greyscale. Look in "Properties" and see if it's possible with your printer. I think that unless you're printing with greyscale, you are using black.

You are going to get roller smear at the very least, and a jam more than likely. You will also get creases from the heat. But if you laser has special settings for special paper, it may work. Most high end color printers are not laser printers.

Also, my printer is able to print on this type of material. Just check a few different places and I am sure you will find someone.

Yes, very much so. I assume you realize the considerable differences in paper, i.e., glossy, art stock, 100% rag, etc., will require adjustments on your images prior to printing. If you're using Photoshop or Light Room, previewing your image with Soft Proofing will greatly assist your output. BTW, you MUST change the blacks when using rag or art stock from photo black to matte black--and easy adjustment on the printer.

I just used my inkjet printer. The colors come out very vivid. I don't have the silhouette machine. I think you might want it for intricate cutouts but I just scissors or a ruler and a razor knife. You need to be sure your ink is completely dry before handling the labels. I also used either spray or brush on clear oil based polyurethane because I was putting the stickers on tile around the sink in the kitchen. I wanted the tiles to stand up to washing so I used 3 coats and baked each coat on. I did not do the clear coating on other labels I made.

I was able to do this however, the method for setting this up is somewhat dependent on your computer operating system. I have Windows 7 and I was able to open what's called an HP Printer Assistant application. From there, I selected "Set Preferences". From there, select the "Layout" tab and the "Advanced" option. Once in this advanced settings, there is a line for "Print in Grayscale" that has an option for "Black Ink Only". Alternatively, everytime you go to print, there should be an advanced option for doing the same thing.

Normal copy paper, yes.I do not know about transparency/see through film. It may not adhere to the surface. Do note that you will get a lighter print if you print on normal copy paper as this type of ink needs to be heated and applied on a surface that has a sublimation coating applied to it, in order for the colors to "pop".

You need to buy a black or color cartridge for it. You also need to buy badges (PVC cards). You also need to invest in the software program which is about 80 dollars. Unless you are really smart and use another program to write to the printer

Buy the software called bartender, then print yourself using the fba sku. Also, I would recommend using thermal transfer, not direct if you are using a 200dpi printer. Make sure the media you use is extra sticky. That means you will usually have to buy 50 to 100 rolls at a time, if not through me. I sell special labels myself that are vinyl or metallic based; super sticky! Most of the amazon ebay labels are cheap Chinese labels and will fall off at the warehouse, making your inventory "damaged/unfulfillable"

Ironically, I just downloaded the template today. I experimented with laser printing one label at a time. It worked well for the three labels I printed.

Yes....but you will need to seal your fabric over after the image is printed as it will not hold! I covered mine with a gel medium and that worked, but an ink jet is definitely better!

I suggest going to a place that specializes in Plexiglass and have a piece of that cut to fit the difference between where the window kit ends and the top of the slider. Go for a bit thicker than thinner so it doesn't bend easily, plus it will look nicer during the daylight hours than a solid item like wood... We have a Tap Plastics out here in Northern California - Good luck!

I used printer paper, and it worked fine! Just fine tune your "Ironing time" depending on how hot your iron gets. Seems all Irons are different! Good Luck with your Project

I use the lightpad with 32 lb HP laserjet paper. You don't need tracing paper, any standard paper will do.

Answer #1: No, red is not recommended. Refer to opaque transfer sheets for the bolder & darker colors. Answer #2: Yes, if you only want the printer objects shape, you will need to cut away the "waste"...otherwise you will have a 8.5" x 11" rectangle (with whatever background color you have chosen) with your printed object on it.
