Not sure which color Polaroid film you have but transfer was quite possible IF AND WHEN the chemical goo was not dried up. An active chemical goo is required to transfer the pigments from negative to positive. Chances are high that your film’s goo is partially dried up so only partially transferring pigments. As a next experiment, moisten the paper and leave the neg in contact for a longer time. Also, be mindful of temperature as cold will delay the pigment transfer also. Polaroid transfers were a really great art form; I really miss doing them!
