Sublimation

This printer is the same as our color printer, but uses special ink and paper that works with heat to transfer your full color images.

Sublimation printing uses heat to fuse ink and surface material or fabric, depending on the case. The inks used in the sublimation process turn into gas when brought under heat, then combine with the textile and permanently imprint on the fabric/surface. The result is permanent and significantly less prone to fading, as the ink penetrates the material instead of simply laying on top like a regular print.

Sublimation is only suitable for garments that include pure polyester or polyester blend. Images will transfer to 100% cotton, but will have a faded look. You can also use Sublimation to transfer to sublimation blanks (keychains, mousepads, mugs, etc.) and wood (although full color images may appear a bit faded on wood).

Works best on white or light colored surfaces.
