According to functions, we can divide heat press machines into two types – basic and professional. But whether you’re using the basic or professional heat press machines, they are basically operated the same way.
The basic heat press machines are good for small jobs and home use. They’re much more affordable. The professional heat press machines are geared for making bulk orders. They have a much bigger platen (metal board) for a bigger working area to cater large garments. The professional heat press is also complete with more sophisticated time, temperature, and pressure settings.
Here’s a brief step-by-step guide on how to operate heat press machines:
1.Turn on the power by flipping the on/off switch
2.Turn the thermostat knob to the right until you see the red heating light
3.When the thermometer indicates the desired temperature for your transfer, turn the knob back to the left until the heating light turns off. The heating light will go on and off to regulate your desired temperature
4.If your machine has a digital timer, press it to start the timer and when you hear the alarm, press stop to reset
5.Lift up the handle to open the press
6.Lay out t-shirt and lay Transfer Paper onto shirt facing down
7.Bring the handle down. The handle should lock firmly in place
8.Set the timer based on the instructions on your Transfer Paper
9.Lift the handle to open the press
10.Peel the Transfer Paper from the shirt
11.Allow at least 24 hours for the print to “lock” before washing the t-shirts
