I recently have had a lot of interest from customers in printing various logos on pens. After reading up on the technique of putting waterslide decals on pens I made one using The Free Masons logo. It turned out ok (I posted a picture of it in the Show Of your Pens section), but I'm not really happy with the quality of the decal.
I used a logo downloaded from the web, Testors decal paper, and an Epson NX625 printer on the highest quality photo settings. I reduced the size of the logo using Photoshop Elements.
My question is how do I improve the quality of the decal? Should I get a higher quality decal paper? If so any recommendations? Should I look into a better printer? Should I be looking for a higher resolution picture of the logo than the one I downloaded from the web? Is there a source for buying high resolution graphics.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
