Is there a way of printing or copying a letter onto material. I want to send someone a greeting but I want to do it on a t-shirt. I can print it off on my computer on paper but I don't know how to get it printed onto fabric. Any help would be appreciated

    Go to a computer store, and buy the special paper there is for this. You may also need a special cartridge of ink for your bubblejet printer.
    then print the message 'mirrored' on the paper, place the paper face down on a clean t-shirt, and thansfer the ink to the t-shirt with a hot iron.

    Be warned that sweat cannot evaporate through the ink so the shirt can get pretty uncomfortable if you fill a large area with solid ink. make sure there are lots of 'holes' in the image.

    Make it an iron on transfer on your printer.

    Use either HP iron-on transfers for light fabrics or HP iron-on transfers for bright colored fabrics.
