Print the same unicorn design on each of the three papers using the same printer with the same settings. I mirrored all three as well. Took note of any issues with printing as well as how the unicorn looked when printed.
Pressed all three unicorns on the same blank with the same heat press. I pressed these one at a time with exactly the same settings and was very careful not to get the heat press on the unicorns that were already on the shirt. Then compared the unicorns themselves to each other to look for differences in appearance and quality. What is the best sublimation paper? So, after pressing, what are my results? I had zero issues with printing and pressing. Again I had zero issues with printing and pressing.
