During this time of experimentation with printing on nets and came across a few problems with printing and foiling initially started by printing full-colour in our studio computer and printer's then heading to the screen printing studios and using their heat press despite following instructions of 160° 12 seconds the outcomes were not perfect and so I tried to put the heat on the longer in the hope that it would hold to the ink better this work either. This was really frustrating and resulted in a lot of trials that were not overly successful. So then I went to the library and use the laminator by putting the paper all net through three times the outcomes were much better.
By changing the printer settings before printing it was important to tell the printer to take the paper and the bypass tray and also to ensure that it would print full-colour otherwise it would be the wrong type of ink.
Here are some of the failed nets that were caused by rural settings in the printing process or failed foiling efforts.
