Hi: What do you do when your printer won't print on reverse? I want to do a bc tranfer and tried to print on the reverse and it always comes out not on mirror image. Am I doing something wrong with the printer? It's not a very hard printer to operate. If you can please help!!! Vicki0052

you might have to change the "PAPER" setting to something like t-shirt transfer to get it to work.

For me, when you print, I go to "file" then "print" - not the printer icon so that you can get to your options. When the print window pops up, click on Properties then Print Layout (might be page layout). Then there is an option to print "mirror" (yours might be "reverse"). It give me a little message that says it will print in reverse and actually shows a picture of a t-shirt transfer as an example. Hope this helps!

You need to reverse the image before you print it. HTH

Thank you everyone. When I go into the print options, I get a reverse "R" but when I print out an image it still not reversed. I don't know what to do now, because I truly wanted to practice the butter cream transfer method. Maybe, I'll just do a color flow image instead. Thank you for all the help. Vicki0052.

Print it out, hold it up to a window and trace the lines on the back. icon_smile.gif
