Beginner setup and supply checklist

Choose the project

• Name one finished item and the exact blank or garment SKU.
• Record blank composition, coating, shape, and intended transfer process from its supplier.
• Measure the artwork area on this item, including seam and handle clearance.

Match the equipment

• Record the printer model, installed ink system, paper, and supported process.
• Check the printer's imageable width and height for the selected feed path; media size alone is insufficient.
• Record the exact press or oven model and confirm that the item fits its usable geometry.
• Find instructions for this blank and equipment context. Leave unknown settings blank.

Assemble the complete path

• List ink, paper, blank, protective sheets, transfer fixation, and heat-safe handling supplies required by the instructions.
• Check what is already owned or included in a bundle before totaling cost.
• Save the source URL, check date, and any conflict between a product page and manual.

Before the final item

• Confirm orientation and mirror instructions for this exact workflow.
• Follow the manufacturer or supplier preparation and safety instructions.
• Test one item before a batch where the supplier recommends a test.
• Record the actual setting and result in the material and settings log.
