   Right. Spinnaker released a product named "Tee Shirt Shop" which
included software to print hires images, a collection of thick-line
images, and transfer paper, PLUS some blank tee shirts! 

   Although TSS did not specify a special heat transfer ribbon, it sounds
like a good idea-- either that or a new 'regular' ribbon. Educational
products distributors may be a good source for heat transfer paper.
