    Pinwheel Spots

    Hi Everybody

    I'm just starting out in sublimation and have tried a couple of different transfer papers through my Epson L310 printer. The paper I'm using at the moment prints beautifully but as our weather has become more hot and humid of late the printer is leaving pinwheels marks on the prints which is getting worse by the day. The paper is curling and possibly swelling with the humidity. Can anyone recommend a brand of transfer paper (A4 size) that will sit flat whatever the weather and possibly be a bit more impervious to moisture in the air?

    Also, what is the best way to clean the ink off the pinwheels?

    Thanks in advance

    Gill

    you need to keep your paper somewhere like a nice warm airing cupboard

    Funny - I just had that exact thought. :-) I have tried two different papers now - the first one I got printed horribly but sits flat and does not curl. Paper now in airing cupboard. Thanks ArferMo. We'll see what happens.
