    hello from Austin Texas. I am a husband of the crafter. She asked me to watch this to help her. You did a great job, and everything was clear. I have one suggestion. You said when you opened the box and got the original (normal) ink you said to discard or chuck them. They are worth about $50 dollars to someone that has an Epson printer that they use for normal printing. Don't throw them away. Share with a friend that has an Epson. They can give you a few bucks to help you pay for your sublimation ink and put less plastic in the landfill.
    Very nice and explanatory video! Thank you.

    Absolutely brilliant … only wish I’d followed your method, Angie … I couldn’t find your inks in the UK) and the ones I bought didn’t have complete hypodermics, just a needle to push onto the top of each bottle (no safeguards such as screwing them in …). Holding 125 ml bottles upside and squeezing them was scary but all went well to the last bit of cyan - I relaxed a little and gave the bottle a final squeeze and WHOOSH! All over the surrounds and my brand new printer - Aggghhhh! Fortunately a bit of water followed by a dry cloth got most of it off … it’s all those little places you can’t get to … No worries, I am undaunted - after all, what else can happen?! Love your videos - we’d all be lost without you.

    Angie, this tip helps tremendously. With pliers, my husband removed the tip of the ink containers. We then poured the ink in an unused plastic side cup (throw away). Now the syringes can easily suck in the ink with very few bubbles. It's so much faster than the way you demonstrated on this video. When you're done, pour remaining ink back in the original container and the original lid is still available for storing remaining ink. So easy. I've used my printer and it all works well.

    I emptied the containers that came with the printer and washed them all out (they cleaned out so easy, no residue left at all with just a quick water rinse) lids were never used. I labeled lid first with the color. I then poured the ink into the four bottles, put the correct color lid on each bottle. Each lid is designed to only fit the correct color. I then used the original bottles to fill the tanks. This was so much easier than syringes.

    • @AngieHolden

I do suggest giving the image a few minutes to dry. I print on the best quality and to avoid smearing the image i just let it sit for a minuteor two. Its not too big, it fits well on top of my table without crowding. Easy to use and was the best I could get within my budget. I didn't throw away my ink. I ended up using it for my regular printer.

    An alternative to filling the tanks is to discard the standard ink, it washes out perfectly with water, then pour the sublimation ink into the Epson ink bottles (be sure to dry them throughly before filling) this way you can fill the tanks much quicker and using the proper method, the tops of the Epson ink bottles simply unscrew.

    • @AngieHolden

      I don't recommend this method. Hiipoo actually has ink in the correct bottles now.

      You can sublimate on glow in the dark vinyl and glitter HTV so that means you can use cotton blends.
