    Need help (inkjet)

    I have used an HP printer that uses #67 ink and it didn't work. It would not transfer. I cannot say which printer it was. It was very similar to my HP 5540. It looked very much like it. Next time I go to an office supply I'll take some things to test it for transfer.

    Transfer Design with Epson Printer

    Search the forum. There is much information about transfers. I just put on an explanation on as how transfers work. It is important to remember that every one has their own ideas and methods. When someone finds something they like they will always think it is the best way.

    Help with image transfers

    Pictorico sheets that are used with an ink jet have one side coated with a material that will not allow it to smear. If you print on a clear sheet that that is not coated or if you print on the wrong side of a Pictorico sheet it will smear every time. Also the ink will bead like it is water on...

    Stones vs Sandpaper

    Yes burnish first. It works but may leave a more brilliant surface. Just touch it up with either stone or paper. Did you polish the plate before engraving? If so, use the same after burnishing to touch it up. Just experiment with different methods to find what works best for you. I keep...
