DIY Sublimation Printer

March 9, 2023 by arabella

For those interested in sublimation, this is a cheap way to make your own sublimation printer using an Epson Ecotank. 

Sublimation printing is a popular method of printing designs onto various substrates, such as textiles, ceramics, and metals. It involves transferring a design from a special transfer paper onto the substrate using heat and pressure. While sublimation printing is a great way to create high-quality, long-lasting prints, it can be costly to set up a sublimation printer. However, there is a cheap way to make your own sublimation printer using an Epson Ecotank.

The Epson Ecotank is a range of inkjet printers that use refillable ink tanks instead of traditional cartridges. They are known for their low running costs, high-quality prints, and versatility. By using the Epson Ecotank and a special sublimation ink, you can create your own sublimation printer at a fraction of the cost of a traditional sublimation printer.

Sublimation ink is a special type of ink that turns from a solid to a gas when exposed to heat and pressure. This process is called sublimation, hence the name sublimation printing. The sublimation ink is printed onto a special transfer paper, which is then placed onto the substrate and subjected to heat and pressure. The heat and pressure cause the ink to turn into a gas, which then bonds with the substrate and creates a permanent, vibrant print.
