Order Summary
This section helps you to determine specific details for ordering your transfers

Print Method
This is the type of transfer that you are ordering. It can be screen printed, digital, or non-apparel

Screen Print
Plastisol ink printed on a release paper and charged per color More info

Transfer Type
Plastisol ink on release paper containing your design to be heat pressed to the apparel items. We offer 9 different plastisol ink transfer types; each with its own unique qualities. Apply these transfers to cotton, polyester, and cotton/poly blends

Backing
The last ink color printed on screen printed transfers that covers all other layers of ink on the sheet for multi colors screen printed transfers. A thin outline of the chosen backing color is needed around other colors.

Dye Blocker
A new ink technology for UltraColor™ Stretch that is the last ink layer printed and completely covers the design. Dye Blocker prevents dye migration when decorating sublimated and highly saturated synthetic fabrics that typically would discolor with traditional heat printing methods.

Elasti Prints®
Use on stretchy polyester fabrics, performance fabrics such as Under Armour®, and moisture wicking apparel (all of our transfers apply to cotton, polyester, and cotton/poly blends)

Elasti Prints Clear
A clear plastisol ink color option for Elasti Prints® screen printed heat transfers that eliminates the need for a “backing color” for multi-color Elasti Prints transfers.

Glitter
Sparkle transfer; great for cheer, spirit, and fashion. Use this type of transfer when creating a faux rhinestone design

Glow-in-the-Dark
This type of transfer is visible when the lights are out. Great for night time events, Halloween, birthday parties, festivals, and bands

Goof Proof®
This is our most popular type of transfer, heat applying in just 4 seconds. This transfer is made specifically to help you avoid mistakes in the heat printing process, making it practically foolproof from your goof ups

Hot Split
This transfer uses ink that melts into the fabric to provide the softest, lightest feel of our product line. Ideal for thin materials such as burnout t-shirts

Pearl Prints™
This transfer can only be one color; it adds a soft and shiny luster to your design

Polytrans
Use for heat-sensitive fabrics such as rayon and acrylic. Uses the same ink formula as Goof Proof® with a different application time and a lower temperature

Puff
When heat applied, the black or white areas on this transfer will create a unique raised look and feel. For the greatest effect; use large, bold designs

Digital CAD-PRINTZ®
Full color transfers printed from digital devices using the CMYK color palette. Use this option for multi-colored custom transfers

Substrate
This is the type of full color transfer to be used for heat printing to your apparel items. Each transfer provides unique qualities to heat press most efficiently to the fabrics that you are using. All can apply to cotton, polyester, and cotton-poly blends

Express Prints
This is our most economical full color digital transfer. Use it on light or dark colored apparel. This transfer is lightweight with a soft, matte finish

Opaque
This is the most versatile full color digital transfer. It allows more stretch than any of our other transfer types and can be applied to most fabrics and any color. Applies to nylon and spandex/ Lycra® (all of our transfers apply to cotton, polyester, and cotton/poly blends)

Sub Block
This full color transfer prevents dye migration; which would cause strong colors, such as reds, to bleed into the transfer. Use for sublimated jerseys. Applies to nylon and spandex/ Lycra® (all of our transfers apply to cotton, polyester, and cotton/poly blends)

Non-Apparel
Additional items that you can create with Easy Prints® that are not clothing items; these include banners, stickers, static clings, wall graphics, and window decals

Banner – Glossy
With this option, your finished banner will have a glossy finish which will give it a slight shine. Good option to use if you are including photos on your banner. Use Easy Prints® layouts QBN-1A through QBN-4A for banner templates

Banner – Luster
This banner option has a matte finish and will provide you with a non-shiny look. Use this option for indoor use to avoid glare from fluorescent lighting. Use Easy Prints® layouts QBN-1A through QBN-4A for banner templates

Custom Bumper Sticker
These are made to be stuck on the bumpers of cars but can even be used on laptops, lockers, and notebooks. Our Bumper Stickers are durable, water resistant, and fade resistant. Use Easy Prints® layouts QBP-1 through QBP-12 for bumper sticker templates

Custom/Helmet Sticker
These full color stickers are available in any size. Use these stickers on helmets, water bottles, lockers, skateboards, and much more. Durable, water and fade resistant

Static Cling – Clear
This window cling has a see-through back so that all you see is the design. Use this option when you are placing it in a spot where you need to see through it. Static Clings are good for indoor use, Window Decals are better for outdoors

Static Cling – White
This window cling has a white background behind the design and offers bright and vivid colors. Use this option if your design looks good with a white background. Static Clings are good for indoor use, Window Decals are better for outdoors

Wall Graphic
These designs adhere to the wall to create custom wall graphics. They’re even repositionable. Create your design with Easy Prints® or upload your own art

Window Decal
These custom designs stick to the outside windows of cars. Use the Easy Prints® layouts to create your own or upload your art

Fabric
This refers to the material that the clothing manufacturers use when creating apparel items. Essentially, it is what your apparel items are made of. Different types of transfers will need to be used for different kinds of fabric

100% Cotton
Fabric made completely with cotton. Cotton is soft, absorbent, and breathable. All of our transfers are compatible with this type of fabric

100% Polyester
Fabric made completely with polyester. Polyester resists shrinkage, is a stretchier material, and dries quickly. All of our transfers are compatible with this type of fabric

50/50 Cotton/Poly Blend
Fabric made with half cotton and half polyester. Keeps color longer than cotton and is more comfortable than polyester. All of our transfers are compatible with this type of fabric

Nylon
This fabric is elastic, strong, and lightweight. CAD PRINTZ® Opaque and Sub Block are the best transfer choices when using Nylon

Polypropylene
This material is used to make reusable grocery bags. When heat pressing to this material, use Elasti Prints™ transfers

Other
If you are using a type of fabric that is not listed above, type it in the box below so that a Dealer Service Representative can ensure that you order the transfer that will work best with the fabric that you are heat pressing to

Cut Apart
Use this option if you would like your transfers cut out individually instead of part of a gang sheet. A gang sheet is an 11.25” x 14” transfer sheet filled with whichever transfers you would like, that will fit on the sheet. With a gang sheet, all of the transfers on the sheet must be the same type of transfer and use the same colors

Yes
Yes, you would like your transfers to be cut into individual pieces

No
No, you would prefer your transfers to be on gang sheets

Number of Colors
This shows the number of colors that you have used while creating your custom transfer design. Keep in mind that the number of colors used comes into consideration in the cost of screen printed transfers. With digital transfers, you can use as many colors as you need with no additional charge

Fabric Color
Choose the color that matches the closest to the apparel that you will be pressing your transfer to. This will change the background color behind your design to closely match that of the fabric you are using, giving you a better idea of what your transfer design will look like on the apparel item

Image Quantity
Type the number of copies that you want in the provided box. This number reflects the image itself, not the gang sheet (area inside of the art board perforated lines). Example: If you type 20 in the box, you will receive 20 copies of your image. If you would like gang sheets and 4 of your images fit on a sheet, you will receive 5 sheets, adding up to 20 total images

Color Change
Choose ‘Edit’ to add a color change. When you choose this option you are ordering another set of the same transfers except with a different color combination. Every time that you add a color change you are multiplying the number of transfers that you are getting by the number of color changes. Example: You are ordering 15 gang sheets and one color change; you will receive 30 gang sheets – 15 in the first color combination and 15 in the second color combination

Base Design
This is the color combination that you have already created. You cannot change the base design choices on this screen, they are here as a reference to let you know what colors you have already used and to help you choose your new color combinations

Add Color Change
Choose this option to add different color combinations of the same design to your order. Change the ink colors, fabric color, and even modify the number of copies that you get for each color combination. There is a $15 charge for each time you change an ink color. But you get the total sheet price of your total order.
More info

Quantity
With each color change you can order a different quantity; this is for when you need more of one color combination than another

Total Image Quantity
This is the total number of images that you are ordering, including the color changes. You can find the number of total gang sheets in the ‘Order Price’ section below

Order Price
First, this section provides the individual price of the images at the quantity that you are purchasing. Next, the price per sheet is determined by how many images can fit on each transfer sheet (if you are ordering your images ‘cut apart’ then the sheet price will not apply). Under the sheet pricing, you will see a number of sheets; this is the number of sheets that your design will fit on at its current size with the quantity that you choose. The total price of all of the images you are ordering and the day that your transfer order will ship from our company is included as well. This price does not include shipping Preview & Share
