Dual pressure heat press
Take the guesswork and complicated adjustments out of the equation with the MAXX 2G+ Dual Pressure Heat Press. One twist for "firm" pressure for pretreating, another twist for "light" pressure for curing ink — no more guesswork or frantic fiddling with knobs. Made by Hotronix in conjunction with Brother International Corporation.
Brother recommended time and temperature settings: 356°F for 35 seconds.
