What Can't an iColor White Toner Printer Do? (And an Epic Giveaway)

If you're considering getting a transfer printer for cutless, weedless transfers you have a few choices: a white toner printer or a direct to film printer. 

I have both...and while white toner transfer printers don't get nearly as much recognition, don't sleep on them because they can do a lot more than what you probably realize AND there's no maintenance. Two HUGE advantages over DTF printing. 

A recent price drop on material means white toner transfers are even cheaper to print! 

My Uninet white toner printer is one of the most versatile printers in my office with the ability to print white on everything from dark to clear paper (and stickers), create transfers for any color shirt, print sublimation transfers, print vinyl decals, transfers for hard goods and even create foil transfers! Uninet likes to say that for $3995 you can get a business in a box...and given all you can do with it with varying combination of toners and materials, I agree. 

And the best part..I love the iColor 560 so much I've partnered with Uninet and Swing Design to give one away! 

Read on to learn 5 ways to use an iColor 560 that no body is talking about...plus details on how to enter to win one!

Layering Vinyl When the Vinyl's Not Actually Layered (Apple Word Art Pt 2)

I previously showed you how to design a custom apple word art with students' names in Silhouette Studio...and today I'm going to show you how to cut and layer that design.

The same process applies to any layered adhesive vinyl design, so don't worry if you don't have an apple.  If you're a beginner, don't be scared by the number of steps here - you know me: I just break everything down into simple easy to follow steps!

This is one of those cases where filling the design elements with the color vinyl you are going to cut on is not only helpful, but necessary.  In this method of layering vinyl, we're going to use layering registration marks and the Cut By Fill color.
