I want to make some tshirt transfers.

The paper is to be used with an inkjet printer NOT a lazer printer.

How do I know which mine is?

It's a HP Deskjet 3050?

Can anyone help me? Please?
Forty and fabulous, well that's what my cards say....

    A quick search shows that the HP DeskJet 3050 is an ink jet printer. You could search or find the exact details on HP's web site.

    Usually for HP they call their LASER printers LaserJet.

    Actually, HP laser printers are called Laserjet so they have jet in their name as well despite not being inkjet.

    The Deskjet 3050 is still an inkjet printer though.

    Make sure to flip the image horizontally before printing, especially if the transfer includes text

    That depends on the paper. "Dark Shirt" transfers are often print-right-way.
    I'm dreaming of a white Christmas.
    But, if the white runs out, I'll drink the red.
