Rancho Cucamonga, Calif. – Heat transfer resource Transprint announced that ceo William Boyd is retiring from the day-to-day operations of the company; he will continue as a consultant to Transprint on textile innovation.

Boyd grew Transprint into the largest producer and supplier of top quality heat-transfer paper in the United States for design, fabric and finished goods. The company, purchased by Colorep, Inc. in 2007, is now expanding.
