Im looking to get started and i know i want one with the large format where i dont have to get a new one later. Would u recommend this one over other epsons ir sawgrass ?
Becky, this was such a helpful tutorial. I followed you step by step and my printer was setup in no time. Thank you again for making this such a positive experience; very excited to start using my et 15000.
I have been searching for a printer that will print large images for sublimation. I just purchased the ET-15000. I was not sure who I would load the paper, and thought I purchased the wrong printer. Thank goodness I found your video. Thank you.
@@leaha7064 yes I was checking everyday too and the stores around me all had 1 only(I'm in CO)..I had bought 2 online(pick up in store only) from 2 differ stores just in case the 1 closest was really just to good to be true😄
Hey Becky, I do agree with others about how you take the time to really make this process seem painless to set up😊. My question is, what is the third party ink company did you settle for your printer?
If you needed a smaller printer then you could also go for the Epson SureColor F170 which is designed for dye sublimation printing. It includes dye sublimation Epson ink bottles.
@@YumBonBon The SureColor F170 can print up to 8.5x14 size. It is smaller than 13x19, but the printer is cheaper and is designed for dye sublimation. Using Epson ink and transfer paper with the F170 should not void your warranty compared to using third party inks. With the SureColor F170 you may also be eligible for Epson SureColor F-Series Rewards as an additional benefit.
This is a very good set up video. I liked that you kept the information limited to the subject at hand and gave reasons for why you did what you did. I am technologically challenged and I was able to do this on my own (with my husband for moral support during the wifi set up). I actually want to use the printer as a regular printer not for sublimation. The only videos I could find were for sublimation...and I took a chance that the only difference was the type of ink installed. Thank you so much!
First of all I want to thank you for all the help and support you give us in your videos. I have a question related to the ink. Can I switch sublimation ink brands?
Hey Marilyn! You can still make larger projects by piecing your prints together! Check out our video on the doormats, it helps a tad in this area, I'll link it below. Hope this helps! ---Becky ruclips.net/video/g-3R6TtsKjs/видео.html
So I need a sublimation printer that does the 13x19 prints. This printer is however now discontinued so people are jacking up the price to $1000. Do you have another printer you'd recommend for that size. I'd prefer not to shell out $1000 or $1500 for the sawgrass.
Thank you Miss Becky. I was tired of getting all dirty with the WF-7210, you have encourage me to upgrade to the ET-15000. I will browse your other videos to search for the best quality ink. Thank you again
I just got into sublimation with the base level Ecotank and its really great. While it only goes up to 8.5x14, it s a good way to start for ~$200. If anyone is thinking about it, its worth it. Im glad to see DesignBundles do this video because I think it scares people to do this, but honestly, its NOT technical at all. Once you get this and then a convection toaster oven (mine was $40), you can sublimate tumblers.
Does sublimation ink mean it is only for clothing bags etc or could I also use it for making candy wrappers too with glossy photo paper . As I cannot afford to be buying two printers one for sublimation and one for sweets candy wrappers TIA
@@paisleylis6181 Sublimation ink will work for coffee mugs, mouse pads, plates, hats. Anything that is sublimation ink compatible. I am blown away with all of the stuff you can print on. I had no idea.
Becky ... first thank you for this and all your great informative videos! Priceless for us newbies! Question: I noticed the ink you used was easily loaded into the ink tanks. I purchased a different brand which requires using syringes ... is there a problem with switching to Cosmos ink after using Hiipoo? I know you can’t mix regular ink and sublimation ink, but what about Hipoo to Cosmos? Thanks! Kathy
@@kathleenwilds1624 you can use the ink bottles it comes with just empty them out. You have to use pliers to twist the top off. Screw them off at the top not the rim. Then pour the ink out rinse out and let them dry out, pour the sublimation ink into it and it works perfect.
This is great. I was just researching sublimation and happened to notice the north pole truck in the background, recognized it and the say your glowforge! You're in the same group I am on FB lol but thanks for the great info!
I had a printer about 5 or 6 years ago that I didn't remove all of the tape and nearly destroyed the printer so that was a confirming that was a huge relief! Thank you!
Thanks so much for this timely tutorial. I’m expecting my ET15000 any day now. What was the name of the ink purchased? Also, I heard there may be problems using WiFi. Will your project stop printing if you lose your WiFi connection?
Glad to hear you are on your journey to learn sublimation! The ink I'm using is Cosmos Ink, this is my first experience with this brand but so far so good. I have not had any problems with the Wifi so far, but you can connect to the printer with a cable if your connection becomes a problem. Hope this helps! ---Becky
Thank you, I watched and followed your tutorial step by step to set up my new Epson ET-15000, you made it so much less stressful,. Now to set up my new Silhouette Cameo 4 and learn to use it😅
Extremely helpful! Had to change outlets so that the printer was the only thing plugged in but it works great. I also skipped the part about the Cosmos Ink having a seal and totally thought my printer was seriously broken 🤣🤣🤣 But it's all done now, thank you so much!
The ET-15000 is next on my list to buy. I started sublimation with the ET-2760 and I like it, but the 8.5x11 is always small for Large and XL T-Shirts.
@@sonaturalc4132 the standard 8.5 x 11 print works for small and medium t-shirts using sublimation. For sublimation, I flip the image, print directly from photoshop or illustrator to the sublimation printer on sublimation paper, then press to the t-shirt using a heat press.
Hello. I also use silhouette to print from but I can’t for the life of me get my print box to move big enough to print 13x19. What did you set your silhouette preferences at? Tia
Hi, and thank you for this video on the Epson 15000 I just purchased one and got a good deal of $499 @ best buy. Going to setup my printer after I watch your video once more. I see this video was made 2 yrs ago with this printer came out so I hope you still look at your messages Thanks again and if you do look at this message I have a question.. Can I set up a hard wire printer with the option of using wifi occasionally?or is it one or the other. And which do you prefer a direct connection or wifi?
Hi Becky, I just got en epson et 15000 last week and I just started setting it up. I’ve done the print head nozzle check 14 times and it’s still printing out with a lot of missing lines on all colors 😩 I don’t know what else to do. Please of you can help me with this I’d be so thankful. I love how you explained everything here! Thank you
Thanks for your video it was very helpful. I’m wondering if you are able to switch between sublimation ink and epson ink? Or do you use a different printer for other projects that don’t require sublimation ink?
Hi Becky, I purchased a Epson ET-4760 ecotank printer as I could not find the ET-15000 anywhere... so bummed!! Thank you for this video as it will help me a lot once I receive my printer on March 8th. I certainly hope that I purchased a good printer. I have a Brother ScanNCut and wish you had one so you can make tutorials about it 😀 I use CanvasWorkspace which is quite different from the Cricut software. Thanks you for your awesome video's!!
Well on one hand yes you can use the et-15000 for sublimation printing and it appears to work just fine, however if you were to ever have a mechanical problem, not to say that you will, but if you do then you’re pretty much SOL. And I just checked EBay and the et-15000 is roughly $926 ish. That’s a pretty big gamble, for me anyway. Because I personally called Epson and talked to a product salesman and I mentioned the et-15000 and he specifically said that you’re not supposed to do sublimation printing with it. And he said that if you do sublimation printing with it, then it will void the warranty. He suggested the Epsone F170, because it is designed to do sublimation printing and it will be covered under warranty when you do sublimation printing. And it’s roughly $500 dollars. He also suggested the F570, but it’s like $3000 dollars. I’m not going to spend that much money right now on that. I’m just curious to know what your thoughts are on these things that I mentioned? Thanks
Great thoughts on all of it! Epson definitely won't cover you under their warranty if you are putting sublimation ink in a printer that its actual use is regular printing, so if something does happen you would not have that warranty. Whereas with Sawgrass if something were to happen, you would have that warranty.
Loved the video 😊 but wish knew what ink you used 😢. Im not sure what to buy to get the best prints. Ive been.using printers jack with my Epson 2850. Help.
Hallo I really like your video, would you please help me with this question. Does Epson EcoTank ET-15000 sublimation printer works on 12 oz canvas bag? Please answer
Hi there! I just bought the Epson ET-15000. I have several broken lines in my test print as well as lines through the words. I’ve cleaned the printer heads 4 times and still no better. Any advice on what to do?!?
@@mashallahz5297 you install the icc profile In the icc folder. Let’s say you use photoshop, this program has a dedicated icc folder. There you store the file. Then you modify the image in photoshop. And say at the printer dialog. Photoshop manages color. And you choose the icc file. It will than use this file to print the colors. Want me to make a video?
It's been 2 years - are you still happy with the printer? I'm considering getting the Epson 15000 but value your input. Also interested in the brand of ink you used
Hi, I am having a horrible time getting my Epson 15000 printing. I didn't set it up for wi-fi which I am wondering if that might have been a mistake. I am wondering would it be okay to uninstall the printer and reinstall it? Thanks vicky
Thanks so much for the video. I’m just getting into sublimation and just purchased this printer, it’s in the mail on its way to me as I text this. My question is, what sublimation ink do you recommend. An Amazon link would be appreciated. Thanks again
Hi thank you for letting us know the epson model you purchased! Did you find any issues with connection or ink with the 7840? or is it all mostly the same process
I returned the 7840 and went ahead with the Epson 15000. I love it and so easy to use. Thank you. Now trying to load on a MacBook Pro to use in Silhouette Business Edition.
Hi Becky. I just got my et15000. Your video was so helpful in setting it up. Question. Any word about updating firmware on it. I am seeing a pop up on printer’s LCD panel to update it. Please advise. Thanks
I HAVE DONE THIS A THOUSAND TIMES AND AT THE END IT IS SAYING IT CANNOT FIND MY PRINTER. DO YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS? THE WIFI IS CONNECTED PROPERLY TO THE PRINTER.
Hi there! Are you using the photography as sublimation prints? If so, I would recommend the Sawgrass SG1000. It will print in better quality consistently compared to the Epson which does often have troubles with clogged nozzles and lines if not used regularly! - Dawn 😊
I am on my 8th print head cleaning and really starting to regret getting Printers Jack ink. Why oh why did I not see this video earlier lol. Thanks for sharing.
Can you do this with any of the epson refillable ink printers??? From reading the comments it looks like you can. I have the 2760 printer ...And can you use the sublimation ink after putting the epson ink in that has been used until empty? Peeps...Becky has mentioned almost every comment what ink she is using..How frustrating for her to type the same answer...It is Cosmos ink! Thanks Becky for this video.
Hey JC! Yes, once an Epson printer is empty of the Epson ink, you can purchase the refillable cartridges and use sublimation ink, just make sure you perform a few print head cleanings to purge out the old ink. I don't know about using any Epson, but the ET-2760 seems to be a good choice. Since it's an EcoTank, I would caution letting the tanks run empty to replace with Sublimation Ink. I would look at disconnecting the tubes from the print head and manually extracting the ink. From what I understand it's quite the process and has a little risk involved, but letting the tanks run empty could be damaging to the printer. Hope this helps! ---Becky
Hi, I am having a horrible time trying to use my Epson 15000 printer. I am beginning to think I don't have it set up correctly. I didn't do the wireless but maybe I should have. Would it hurt to uninstall the printer and try reinstalling it again? thanks for any help. I am soooo frustrated.
@@DesignBundles thanks. Ive seen other videos use laser paper and it worked. I literally just set up my sublimation printer this afternoon, i will compare the two and see what happens.

Hi there! I just bought the Epson ET-15000. I have several broken lines in my test print as well as lines through the words. I’ve cleaned the printer heads 4 times and still no better. Any advice on what to do?!?
You will want to do a printer head cleaning. The lines you're seeing are called banding. -Brittany
Thank you! I just got mine delivered today!
I just was thinking about this! Thank you for making this video!
I was hoping the video would talk about the actual printing process I’m struggling to get my photo to look right
Sorry this was not helpful
Thanks for sharing Becky!
You are so welcome!
I still advice the use of a good icc profile when printing with sublimation inks. it really boosts the vibrance of the colors. and better results
Have the ET-15000, using sublimation ink and it looks really washed out, how do i use an icc profile
@@mashallahz5297 you install the icc profile
In the icc folder. Let’s say you use photoshop, this program has a dedicated icc folder. There you store the file.
Then you modify the image in photoshop. And say at the printer dialog. Photoshop manages color. And you choose the icc file. It will than use this file to print the colors. Want me to make a video?
@@JunkieVirus very kind of you to offer, just sent over and played with brightness and contrast, spectacular results. thank you so much for the advice
Great tip!
@@JunkieVirus am using inkcafe sublimation ink, the company dont have an icc profile for their ink, what do you reckon I do?
Hi. Thank you for the video. I have just purchased the Epson ET 15000 and new to sublimation. Will any sub ink work in this printer?
It's been 2 years - are you still happy with the printer? I'm considering getting the Epson 15000 but value your input. Also interested in the brand of ink you used
What other epson printer would you recommend for sublimation, if not the 15000?
What kind of ink did you buy? Love the tutorial. Thank you❤
Do you know if this will print on wood?? Looking to sub on wood items.
Thanks! Great video!
Hi, I am having a horrible time getting my Epson 15000 printing. I didn't set it up for wi-fi which I am wondering if that might have been a mistake. I am wondering would it be okay to uninstall the printer and reinstall it? Thanks vicky
Excellent information!!! Thank you very much for this set up and all info video!! ❣💐❣💐❣💐❣💐❣
You are so welcome! I'm glad it was helpful! :)
Can the sublimation ink cause problems with the printer? For example, can I just use Amazon sublimation ink or do I need a specific brand? Thanks
That’s what I want to know also! I actually bought a sublimation ink called ezink but I’m wondering if I can use it?
Thank You. Super helpful! Made my setup so much easier!
Hi Becky, will the sub ink you used work on other Epson printers?
Thanks so much for the video. I’m just getting into sublimation and just purchased this printer, it’s in the mail on its way to me as I text this. My question is, what sublimation ink do you recommend. An Amazon link would be appreciated.
Thanks again
Glad it was helpful! Becky used Cosmos ink.
I just installed my printer by following your steps but my ink is printing really light. Did I miss any steps?
So glad I watched this before opening my 7840. This is so easy, thank you!
Hi thank you for letting us know the epson model you purchased! Did you find any issues with connection or ink with the 7840? or is it all mostly the same process
I returned the 7840 and went ahead with the Epson 15000. I love it and so easy to use. Thank you. Now trying to load on a MacBook Pro to use in Silhouette Business Edition.
Hi Becky. I just got my et15000. Your video was so helpful in setting it up. Question. Any word about updating firmware on it. I am seeing a pop up on printer’s LCD panel to update it. Please advise. Thanks
You are also able to do the “driver portion from the app!
Any suggestions on how to get your colors more vibrant? I have the epson 15000 as well and it’s printing dull.
It will print dull and become vibrant once pressed. If your still having issues try changing your print settings to best
I HAVE DONE THIS A THOUSAND TIMES AND AT THE END IT IS SAYING IT CANNOT FIND MY PRINTER. DO YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS? THE WIFI IS CONNECTED PROPERLY TO THE PRINTER.
Great tutorial. Could you tell me the ink brand you used in this video?
Would you recommend this printer for photography prints? Which ink would you use ?
Hi there! Are you using the photography as sublimation prints? If so, I would recommend the Sawgrass SG1000. It will print in better quality consistently compared to the Epson which does often have troubles with clogged nozzles and lines if not used regularly! - Dawn 😊
I am on my 8th print head cleaning and really starting to regret getting Printers Jack ink. Why oh why did I not see this video earlier lol. Thanks for sharing.
I think the same thing I wouldn’t buy that ink again
Do you change the ink settings in preferences? For my 7720 I did change them. Thanks
It will depend on the printer, yes for your 7720 you will want to adjust your printer settings. - Brittany
Can you do this with any of the epson refillable ink printers??? From reading the comments it looks like you can. I have the 2760 printer ...And can you use the sublimation ink after putting the epson ink in that has been used until empty? Peeps...Becky has mentioned almost every comment what ink she is using..How frustrating for her to type the same answer...It is Cosmos ink! Thanks Becky for this video.
Hey JC! Yes, once an Epson printer is empty of the Epson ink, you can purchase the refillable cartridges and use sublimation ink, just make sure you perform a few print head cleanings to purge out the old ink. I don't know about using any Epson, but the ET-2760 seems to be a good choice. Since it's an EcoTank, I would caution letting the tanks run empty to replace with Sublimation Ink. I would look at disconnecting the tubes from the print head and manually extracting the ink. From what I understand it's quite the process and has a little risk involved, but letting the tanks run empty could be damaging to the printer. Hope this helps! ---Becky
Do you have to clean the heads everytime you add ink?
What type of ink did you use? Thank You for this helpful video
Cosmos Ink.
Hi, I am having a horrible time trying to use my Epson 15000 printer. I am beginning to think I don't have it set up correctly. I didn't do the wireless but maybe I should have. Would it hurt to uninstall the printer and try reinstalling it again? thanks for any help. I am soooo frustrated.
Does anyone know of if you absolutely have to use sublimation paper? Does laser paper work like it does with infusible ink?
I read on another site that you absolutely have to use sub. paper.
You have to use Sublimation Paper with the Sublimation Ink for it to work properly.
@@DesignBundles thanks. Ive seen other videos use laser paper and it worked. I literally just set up my sublimation printer this afternoon, i will compare the two and see what happens.
@@mizzysparrots4874 how did it work for you?
If I used printer jack ink can I change to hippo without cleaning all the lines. Tku for your help and videos
You can however you'll want to make sure your ink is really close to being completely empty. - Brittany
Do you still need a Cricut or just iron it as is? Sorry I’m new to this
