An ICC printer profile is specific to one certain printer, one type of paper, one inkset and, even, to one print resolution and media setting.

I've just been online shopping for the pens, and it looks like they dry out very quickly, before even being used. Have you had this problem, and if not, how did you store them, so they wouldn't dry out? I'm just starting this video, so I will probably have more questions, as I go along. I REALLY appreciate all the things you have taught me, so far.

They're not the same. Parchment has a silicone coating that traps moisture, while butcher paper does not.

Have you tried the Forever Subli-Light paper for the Sawgrass SG500 on cotton T-shirts? I have a design that uses a high saturation of the ink, and after pressing it with my heatpress, the design will not adhere in certain areas. I've ruined countless shirts and use them for testing purposes. I've tried different heat settings and feel that I am getting closer, but still not there.
