4. Which kind of paper should I use to print the image?

We recommend using the 135g photo paper or paper not above 200g. Please notice that one button requires only 1 sheet of paper and 1 piece of Mylar, otherwise it may result in jamming your machine.

  • Graphic paper: for the best results, use light bond (basic photocopy paper) paper since thicker papers do not press as well.

  • Purchase recommended paper: https://chibuttons.com/index.php/button-machine-and-supplies/photo-paper/photo-paper-135g-100sheets.html

  • Recommend Printer: inkjet printers

5. Can I use other materials such as fabric for my buttons?

Yes, some thin fabrics can be pressed onto buttons. In this case, the Mylar is optional. However, there is no guarantee that all thin fabrics are applicable. To find out if yours works, kindly contact us and we will provide guidance for sampling.
