Cricut provides tested settings recommendations, as well as step-by-step stacking, pressing, and care instructions, to help you achieve consistent heat-transfer results. Recommended settings vary based on your heat-transfer material, base material, and heat press.
Select your heat press below for information on how to access tested recommendations for your projects.
Note: To confirm the recommended application settings work for your materials, test them with your specific heat transfer material and base material before pressing your final blank. Use an inconspicuous area of the base material or a practice blank made of the same material.
