How important is the heat press quality for heat printing?

In general, problems are limited but common issues do exist. For example, the heat press is a pivotal piece of equipment. It can be purchased used at little cost or new from a reputable dealer/manufacturer at a mid- to high-range cost. Choosing the high-quality, precision-made heat press with digital time, pressure, and temperature gauges will greatly reduce issues when transferring an image to a substrate. A high-quality system will also be compatible with two-paper transfers and offer high-caliber sublimation transfers. An investment in the highest quality heat press will, hands down, pay off in the short and long term.
