Notes on Handling T-shirts
(Media)
Note the following points when handling and storing
printed T-shirts.
❏ Avoid locations that are subject to direct sunlight,
excessive heat, or humidity. If T-shirts are stored
in a hot place after printing, the printed surface
may soften and stick.
❏ Do not use a tumble drier.
❏ Do not dry clean.
❏ Turn the T-shirt inside out before washing, and
then let it dry while inside out.
❏ Do not use bleach. It may cause discoloration.
❏ Do not iron directly on the printed surface.
❏ Do not expose to direct sunlight for extended
periods of time.
❏ Do not use organic solvents such as alcohol.
❏ Do not rub the printed surface against vinyl
chloride based artificial leather. The colors may
transfer to the leather.
❏ Colors may transfer if you rub the surface printed
with color ink only against a surface printed with
White ink only. If this happens, use a soft cloth
or brush with a little household detergent to wipe
away the transferred color.
❏ If you have applied pre-treatment liquid and fixed
the ink, we recommend washing the T-shirt in
water before wearing it to remove the remaining
traces of pre-treatment liquid.
❏ If traces of the pre-treatment liquid are visible, try
washing in water; however, the effects depend on
the material of the T-shirt.
❏ If pre-treatment liquid is applied to a white
or light-colored T-shirt, the application side
may turn yellow. Print soon after applying the
pre-treatment liquid and wash in water. Avoid
direct sunlight if you store the T-shirt without
printing.
Introduction
Notes on Handling
Pre-treatment Liquid
❏ We recommend that the pre-treatment liquid be
stored at room temperature out of direct sunlight
and used before the expiry date printed on the
packaging.
❏ Stir the polyester pre-treatment liquid before
opening. If you use it without stirring, the effect
of pre-treatment may not be sufficient. You do not
need to stir after opening.

❏ If white coagulation occurs during storage of the
cotton pre-treatment liquid, filter it to remove
the coagulation before use. If you use the
pre-treatment liquid as it is, the print results will
be uneven.
