One more question that I forgot to cover which someone had asked is:

Q: Do you have to use special paper with [BlackLightning] color Transfer
Toners?
A: No, you use regular paper.  I typically use Hammermill Tidal DP or
copy paper.  That is the wonderful thing about Transfer Toner.  Since
the toner is only acting as a carrier agent for the dye embedded in it
you can use regular paper since the toner stays on the paper and only
the dye colors are transfered to the fabric or other destination surface.
This is also the reason for the permenance and resulting softness of
the fabric.  With Transfer Papers that leave the toner on the fabric,
the toner can wash off of the shirt and you can feel the toner on the 
surface of the fabric.
