The first thing to do is make sure the message to be printed. Choose font, size, color and any special characters, the font size also depends on the height of your belt: to be coincident when you are going to transfer. Consider that to monitor the writing is larger than when it is printed.
I used a 14pt size. for a tape of 10 mm in height. Fate also dotted borders: you will be in the seam and heat transfer.
You must then decide how much space to leave at the beginning and end of the inscription should be sufficient to stay within the seam without "eating" the sentence.
Finally, play your sentence to fill an A4 sheet (given 29.3 x20, 5 cm. About max) and follow the instructions specific to the card-on transfers, print a mirror with an ink-jet ink.
Let dry, then cut horizontally into strips. Please do not cut them individually, you complicate your life unnecessarily.
This first step is probably the most complex, you may have to experiment to the size of the writing that may be smaller than you expected. In this case, do not throw the job done, buy a belt closer or better, buy the tape after printing.

First of all, let's prepare the file of the label. Choose your font, size, color and any special letters. The dimension of the font depends of the height of the ribbon: It Has To Be The Same ounces transferred. Remember than the dimension viewed on the monitor is bigger than it is once stamped.
I've used a 14pt. dimension for a ribbon of 1 centimeter of height. Mark also dotted borders: they will help you during the cutting and transferring.
Then, decide how much space you have to leave before and after the phrase: it has to be enough to be sewed into the seam without cut the phrase. At last, copy the phrase to fill a page: the dimensions depend on your paper format, you have to stamp a whole page. Following the paper instructions, stamp it with an ink-jet printer using the mirror option. Let's dry then cut horizontal stripes. Dont' cut single labels.
This is probably the most difficult step of this tutorial: it's possible you have to make trials in order to Adjust the dimension of the phrase, Which can result littler then you expected it to be. In this case, do not throw your work: just choose a smaller ribbon or, better, buy the ribbon after you Have Done the stamps.

Now is the time to transfer the print to tape. Lay the tape on the board and place the cloth strip upside securing with pins. Caution: To avoid damaging tape and written, place the pins at the ends, the dotted outline will help you put the pins in the right place between a sign and another.
The pins must be fixed in modo fermo ed infilati nel panno il più possibile, in modo da non intralciare il passaggio con il ferro da stiro.

Now let's transfer the paper. Lay the ribbon on the ironing board and place a stripe up down above the ribbon, h
olding with pins. Attention! To avoid to ruin ribbon and stripe, you have to place pins at the edges; the dotted borders will help you to put the pins between the phrases.
Besides, you have to press the pins into the board until the head, in order to not hamper the pass of iron.
