![]() The most commonly-used purpose-built sublimation printers are Sawgrass printers. You can go two ways when it comes to desktop sublimation printers - use a purpose-built sublimation printer (more money and more quality) or convert an inkjet desktop printer (less money and less quality). What sublimation printers do you recommend? You cannot sublimate with regular inkjet printing ink or regular paper. No, you will need a special sublimation printer or converted inkjet printer along with special ink and sublimation transfer paper. The shirt below was decorated with a transferred sublimation ink design made on an Epson EcoTank 2720 printer: You can put gorgeous, full color designs onto shirts, bags, mugs, and more with a sublimation printer and a heat press. After the sublimation prints the design with special sublimation ink onto special sublimation paper, you use high heat and pressure to transfer the ink permanently to something else that has a coating that can absorb the ink, such as a polyester T-shirt or a coated ceramic mug.Īfter the dye sublimation printing process is cooled and complete, the design becomes embedded right in the object, and won’t crack, peel, or wash away. Sublimation is a print method that can duplicate a high quality and full color design with a special ink that can then be transferred to another object with a compatible coating.
