Take a look at this sublimation playlist 👉👉ruclips.net/video/7gHm57DvlWc/видео.html
I didn't know the part about the ink. I bought one for sublimation and I filled it with ink it comes from. So I really need how to remove the ink. Can you help me with a video?
@@vidinho1210 Thanks for your question. I do not have a video on how to remove ink but I can tell you is to start with a syringe and pull out as much as you can. Once you get out as much as possible install the ink you want and do a good set of print head cleaning to get out the old ink.
I just bought my printer, so happy I found your video.
Your welcome 💪
Thanks for the help. Your step by step process really helped!
You are most welcome. I am happy this content can help you.
Thank you thank you made this sooo easy cant wait to get my printer now
You are most welcome 💪💪💪
I wish I’d seen this when I was starting. Great video thank you
You are welcome. 💪💪
Thank you so much for this video. I went step by step and it help me so much.
You are welcome 💪💪
Hiipoo Sublimation ink is the ish bruh. I wanted Cosmos because it’s great but it was hard for me to get it. Found the Hiipoo, I wasn’t let down! Very vibrant.
I also have cosmos ink but I haven’t used it as yet as I have waiting until my other ink runs out first. Then I will do a full print head clean etc. The Hiipoo ink I sn’t back and it could indeed pass.
Thanks for your continuing support. I appreciate it.
Hi, did you use regular letter paper or sublimation letter paper for the aligning of the printer. Thanks in advance (:
Thanks for your question. I used regular letter paper.
What program did you use in your program to begin with please
I used the Epson software from Epson.
You can go on there website and get any software for the specific printer you have.
I am NEW to sublimating, but AFTER I drain my printer( because I was so excited to get started I put in the wrong ink) is there something I need to do BEFORE adding the sublimation ink? I have this same printer......
Hi and welcome to the sublimation world. All you need to do is make sure you drain the ink as much as possible then put in the correct ink and do the head clean, alignment etc. After print about 2-3 different images to get out any of the previous ink and you should be good to go.
I hope this answer helps
@@atprints AWEWSOME!!! THANK YOU!! I will let you know how it goes.
@@tamararagsdale6621 your welcome 👍🏾
@@atprints I did the same! I was so worried. Thanks for the video.
Hello how are you? Can you tell me how to disable this printers color management please 🇹🇹. Thank you
Thanks for your question. I am believing you need to go over to the setting on the computer and into Printer Preference where you will see different options. Its different depending on if you are using a mac or windows computer.
I left the ink in their original bottles and just used the tops. I took the sub ink and placed in the top and squeezed. When finished prewashed tops and put them back on the reg ink. So you won't ever mix the inks.
Awesome 💪💪
Did you use the Hippo ink, Lisa? Literally just purchased the hippo ink and et 2760 yesterday and found this video today.
@@hmeirify yes
Interesting, my Epson ET2760 ink lids didn't fit my Hiipoo bottles. You're lucky.
Good morning Allan do you know the difference between the 2760 and the 2720? If so can you tell me thank you
Thanks for your question.
Base on my knowledge they are both the same. Of course they would carry different inks, both have built in scanners.
They both may have minor differences but they are basically the same.
Hope this helps.
@@atprints thank you
@@JUMA7891 your welcome
Its the size of the black ink tank. Thats the only difference
Allan I followed your way to setup but I still have lines, so whats the issue. I was using regular copy paper.
Sorry for the late response. If you still have lines i would advise that you redo the process or choose one of the boxes or rectangles that has the least lines in them.
I hope this answer helps in some way.
@@atprints Awesome
@@keonipauole1828 💪💪
what do u do when u have already put the ink in and need to take it to put the sub ink in
Thanks for your question. I’ll say that I never done this before. However, I would advise draining as much ink as possible then install the new ink. After print a couple of full sheets to get out the old ink. This should allow the new ink to come out.
This is the best advise I can give or this is what I would do. Just remember as I mentioned before I never had to change inks back.
I converted mine but I can’t seem to get vivid prints on my products
Can you tell me what settings you are using and did you download the profiles/ software when setting it up?
Got lost!! After the line check don’t know where you went for triangles just saw you printing it out
I am very sorry you got lost. However, there aren’t any triangles in this video so i am not sure which area you are speaking about. Can you clarify?
seems like an double handling swapping inks and bottles.Just use the syringes that comes with the inks
Thanks for your recommendations
Can i still use the printer if i don’t have a laptop? I only use an ipad. Thanks.
Yes, you can use it with an iPad.
@@atprints thank you for your response. 😊 will i get the same print quality printing from my ipad? Coz i think we have to set-up the print settings to get the best quality right?
@@imannechavez yes you should get good print quality. Are you using the printer as a sublimation printer?
@@atprints yes, actually i’m planning to get the 2803, they said it’s just the same as the 2720 but improved and cheaper too.
@@imannechavez ok I understand. If you want my advice, I would recommend if you can and have the finances to get a surecolor F170. It will save you a lot of headache but this all depends on your budget.

When doing sublimation you not supposed to mirror.
Yes, when you are sublimating you have to mirror the image.
@@atprints Really i see people using Siser EasySubli and they dont bleed or mirror the image and its amazing. When you cutting vinyl you need to mirror.
@@atprints i also dont use cameo i use cricut
@@keonipauole1828 thanks for your response. Let me go into some more detail to give you a greater understanding about easysubli and sublimation. With easysubli you have two processes you can use. 1. You can print directly onto the easysubli and by doing this you don’t have to mirror the image and you would peel off the back of the easysubli and press it onto the apparel. 2. You can press the easysubli onto a apparel first and then you can print an image from your computer, however, note that once you use this method then you must mirror the image first. Once your image has been printed then you can print that image onto the easysubli. So when using easysubli to sublimate there are two ways you can do it.
But in general when you are looking to sublimate you normally have to mirror your images first. If it is easysubli then as I mentioned higher in my message there are act least 2 ways you can do it.
Hope this helps 💪💪

Session 2 totally missed!! You only showed after printing!! I’m in the middle of setting up help!!!!!!
No session was missed. Once you installed the ink and turn on the printer it will take you through various steps. You will need to go slow and follow all of those steps. When it comes to alignment of the printer it gives you the option to adjust now or later. In the video I recommend you adjusted it right away and once you select the adjust option you will follow the steps and it will print out the squares. Once the squares are printed you will follow the instructions on the printer screen which should be telling you to select the squares with no lines in them.
Once that first alignment is completed then you will proceed onto the second alignment when comes right after the first. At this point the printer will then print out rectangles and you will have to choose those rectangles which does not have a line in the middle and once those steps are completed you can proceed forward.
I hope this helps you and if you are still lost feel free to reach out to me on Facebook or Instagram @allan21thompson or all of my links to my Instagram and Facebook is in the description.
Hope to hear from you.
@@atprints thank you
Please one more question? I didn’t get a chance to complete and got frustrated. I some people say it’s best to keep printer on to keep from clogging and using up your ink when recharge what do you suggest. I’ve only used HTV on Cricut this is my 1st time sublimation. Brought the Epson over 2 months ago and was terrified to attempt. After watching some of your vid I immediately subscribed . Your teaching method made me open the box and start (at least) hope to finish the set up after work
Thank you again 😊
@@pepghee-mendez395 You are welcome.
@@pepghee-mendez395 i am truly happy to hear that my videos gave you the courage to open up the box and start the process. What I can tell you is that so many people get so many different response and experiences with different type of printers. When ever i am finish using the printer it is turn off and i never had any issues with clogging. I would say to you that a lot of people convert printers also myself included which was the best method at that time since there wasn’t a true smaller sublimation printer, but when Epson released the F170 i advised everyone to just purchase a true original sublimation printer and forget the converting.
However all in all, I believe if its turned off you shouldn’t get any issues and i am speaking base on my experience with it not having any issues. However, at the end of the day you need to trust yourself with if you want to keep it on because you fear it might clogged or not. But if you ask me, ill say turn it off when you are finish printing and when you are ready turn it on and print your stuff.
Another example i can give is i have an Epson WF7710 which I converted like 2-3 years ago and after i use it each time i turn it off, Sometimes for 1-2 months straight and when i turn it on it prints like a beauty and i have no issues.
Also you can ask me more questions if you have any. It’s ok with me, thats what i am here for. So ask away. Also as i mention before you can also reach out to me on IG or Facebook and we can talk as i know when you talk its faster.
Keep me updated on your progress.
“Converting” isn’t really the best terminology. It’s basically putting in ink - nothing to “convert”.
