I have the M281fdw and wants to check I'm not being a total idiot chucking my money away on an inkjet printer when I can heat transfer prints onto T-shirts with the printer I already have.

I have found some traces on the internet of success transferring prints onto latest grunge T-shirts, with laser printers, but this seems to either a hit-or-miss process or limited to very specific models.

If at all feasible, suggestions for the required transfer paper would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, 

I wouldn't recommend it. From what I've seen even with "laser printer" transfer paper the results are never consistent. You really need to go inkjet for that hobby.
