| What will happen
if my Computer Printer Fabric™ comes in contact with
water? |
| |
|
|
Computer Printer
Fabric™
is a dry clean only fabric and is sensitive to water. When
printing onto the fabric, you are using a water-based ink.
This process is simply coloring the fabric with an ink, not
a dye, which means the ink is not permanent and will wash away
if it comes in contact with water. We do not have any type
of solution, spray or fixative that can make the Computer Printer
Fabric™ permanent. We suggest you handle your quilt with
the utmost care and dry clean it only if it becomes soiled.

I'm having
trouble removing the backing of my Computer Printer Fabric™,
are there any tips you can offer? |

The backing
of the Computer Printer Fabric™ is adhered to help
stabilize the fabric so it will pass through your printer
with ease. The backing should be scored to help in releasing
it from the fabric. It is important to pull the backing off
evenly from the center out or from the top to the bottom.
You want to avoid pulling from corner to corner on a diagonal.
This can distort the picture. If you are having trouble peeling
from the top, center of the fabric, try starting with a corner
and peeling just the top away so you can then begin pulling
the fabric from the top to the bottom. To help release the
fabric from the backing, you can try rubbing a corner in
your fingers (fabric sides together). Be mindful that you
are not rubbing any of the ink. This can also help to break
the fabric away from the backing. Please keep in mind that
you are working with a printable, 100% cotton fabric and
it is possible to experience fraying.

It is best to
load one sheet of Computer Printer Fabric™ into your
printer at a time. Once one sheet has passed through your
printer, you may load the next sheet to be printed on.
If your printer is having trouble gripping the edge of the
Computer Printer Fabric™, we recommend that you line
the leading edge of the fabric with masking tape to help
the printer grip the fabric and pull it through its printing
process. It is also important that you watch the fabric as
it comes out of your printer so it does not catch on any
of the component parts of the printer and begin to jam. It
may be helpful to watch the fabric as it exits the printer
and help guide it out.
Humidity will have an effect on the Computer Printer Fabric™,
as well as on your printer. If your environment is too humid,
the fabric can curl and will not run through the printer
smoothly. Printers are also more likely to jam in humidity.
It is best to reduce the amount of humidity around both.
