    Just started with sublimation, I converted an eco tank printer to use with sublimation, I wanted to say what an amazing video! Also I did a lot of research before I started, and I thought I had to absolutely use sublimation paper, but you are now the 5th person I have heard say they use copy paper. After what it cost me for the sublimation paper, I am going to try the copy paper LOL Thank you for the great info!

      Believe me, I have a sub printer (because I am trying to making a t-shirts/merchandising business) and they are totally worth it! If you want one, I would say, don't hesitate, just buy it....You will love it. If you want to try it out first, Cricut has a line of products that allow you to test out sub printing as once you get into sub printing, they can print a lot of prints on one tank of ink....so it is a bit of an undertaking. Cricut's line of infusible ink allows you to try out sublimation to see if you like it (as it is pretty much the same thing). So, depending on your wants and needs, you may want to buy a heat press and get some infusible ink transfers first, then, if you still really like sub....by all means, buy the printer.

    @tommcculloch5278 Год назад

    Not strictly correct that you can use eco tank printers. Epson printers use a Piezoelectric print head the majority of the others use Thermal print heads. Epson use lectrical charge to force the print dots, for example Canon use heat behind the print nozzle creating intense heat which will clog the nozzle. That is one reason why Epson is the main printer for sublimation.

  • @Ktbasket
    @Ktbasket 4 года назад +1

    Those turned out awesome!!!!! The colors are amazing. It's been a while since I did coasters with Infusible Ink but didn't we need to wrap the ink transfer paper around the coaster or am I dreaming? Your way looks awesome. I'm loving this set of videos even though I don't have the printer or heat press. Thanks for sharing!

    • @LorrieNunemaker
      @LorrieNunemaker  4 года назад

      Cathy Barwick you can wrap it all the way around if you want the sides to have ink but when they are round you’ll likely not have a smooth transition on the sides.

    Love these! I’m looking to purchase a new printer for sublimation, and thought about the sawgrass500. The printer I’m using now is the Epson 2800 Eco Tank. It does pretty good for everything but photos…such as people and pets. Does the ink in the sawgrass last very long? I did notice that it has ink cartridges. Thank you for any information you can share. I’m really wanting to do photos of my family and friends as well as our pets. Yours look fantastic! 😁🥰

    So wonderful Lorrie! Is it just as simple as purchasing an inkjet printer, taking out the ink cartridges and swapping them for sublimation ones? And from then on only use that printer for your sublimation printing?

    • @LorrieNunemaker
      @LorrieNunemaker  4 года назад +1

      Megan Harrington google your printer and sublimation. Not all printers can be sublimated and there are different methods for swapping them out. Some use an ink tank system, some have cartridges that you fill, etc

    Add extra time when using the easy press from what the infusible ink heat guide says when using sublimation paper and ink. I would almost add an extra minute. Peak at the design before removing any of it in case you have to repress. I just learned all of this the hard way. lol

    Time sensitive question. I plan to purchase some sublimation ceramic ornaments as Christmas gifts. They will be printed with the likeness of pets but I already know one of them won't be totally accurate to what I want. Am I able to do paint touchups over top and then maybe put a glaze again? Or will it come out looking strange since the ornament was already manufactured?

      @LorrieNunemaker  3 года назад

      I have not tried anything like that but I have touched up images with sublimation markers like Artesprix or Cricut Infusible markers

      I would check your coasters and also sure they are sublimation coasters, make sure you are getting a nice even pressure on them with the press and perhaps try different paper f you’re not getting a good result. Also make sure the quality of your image is a good quality. Are you printing with the print manager ?

      Perhaps try adjusting the time down. I’m not sure. Often times if it’s a problem with the color profile black and greys will print with browns and greens. I would check your image and see if it’s the same colors that are off each time

    Great video thank you for sharing. Could you please tell me why is it, when I import a photo from my gallery to put on a 4 x4 coaster template in Creative Studio , I can not get it to just over 4" in size, it seems to stretch so the measurements end up 5.34" x 4.15 and don't look nothing like the original as it is slight distorted, how do you get yours to look spot on regarding the size?. Do you do anything to your imports to get them in focus and not distorted? Many thanks
