Thanks for the info, ive had major issues getting the ink to dry when printing directly to the easySubli. It does very well when printing to A-Sub paper though.. Again a big THANKS
Thank you for sharing this info. Ruined so many EasySubli sheets trying to print from my epson printer. Was thinking I needed to spend on a sawgrass just to be able to print directly on sheets. Will give your method a try at the time you suggested.
Thank you so much for this! I couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong! I'm still lost as to how you can do a print and cut with this technique. Am I missing something?
What I did was cut the EasySubli, applied it to a cotton shirt, and then sublimated it like I would anything else. For a print and cut, you really need to use the sawgrass printers and their inks.
Can you please tell me what do you mean by substrate. Iam new to this and I'm trying to sublimate on black tee shirt. Can u please explain or make a video shoeing this. Thank you.
Hello, did you ever get this figured out? I just came across this and figuring out myself. Substrate is the 'substance' or layer. So in this case it's the shirt, bag, or whatever you're trying to print. Press the easysubli onto the material itself first, then as you would print the sublimated picture on the sub paper like normal, press that onto the easysubli that has already been pressed onto your material. It's a bit confusing. I had to watch a video I found.
@@mahalia1695 So press the easy subli onto the shirt? And then press your asub paper with the design onto the shirt on top of it? Like the glitter htv method
Siser easysubli won’t feed in 2720 printer. Any ideas, tried different paper settings per EPSON service, did not help. Thanks for any help you can give me.
Siser covers that in their intro tutorial. You'll print on the same side no matter what printer you have. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RO_2C6Cq_KU.html
So you print your design on sublimation paper. Then press on to easy Subli. Then press on the garment? Once printed from sublimation paper to easy Subli can it then be cut out on your cricut?
hi! thanks for the information just a question, can i use transfer instead of the mask? i have a lot of transfer and i don't want to spend more if i don't have to, thanks in advanced ! :)
So can I press the sublimation design onto the easysubli first? then transfer it to my garmet?how long do I press it for just to transfer the sublimation design onto the easysubli?
Thank you so much because I had the same question and no videos to help so you print on your sublimation paper first right then you put the image on the easy subli so do you tack it down first then put the sublimation paper on top or do it altogether?
With Sawgrass printers and their inks, yes. Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way with Epson printers. I tried everything from letting it sit for an hour, to letting it sit near a fan for an hour, to letting it sit near heat for an hour. Nothing seems to completely dry the ink when it's printed directly to the EasySubli on an Epson. For reference, I use Ink X Pro inks. Maybe another vendor's ink will have better success.
Last year i bought some easysubli HTV but i really wasnt impressed with it. I had to throw everything away in the end becauase of several things. First of all they say you can print directly on it, if you do so the print will get blurry like hell, not sharp at all, that was the KO point for me. 2nd thing that made me angry was that the B-transfer foil wasnt able to lift the printed easysubli HTV from the backing. That B-Foil is to weak! 3rd thing that made me angry, i had to clean my cutter and printer because it smeared like hell.When i watch your video i can still see that the print isnt as clear, i guess because its a matte HTV tgat is more like flock, you can not get anyy good details out of it. Which paper settings you used? matte paper i guess ? I am surprised that the glue of the easy subli paper is not vaporized/melted away after 60 seconds because its not designed for 60 seconds i guess. Did you sublimated the picture on the easysubli in one go when it was already on the shirt or did you sublimate the picture on the easysubli HTV and then pressed it again on the fabric?
I had to talk to Rudy at Siser to get an answer about Epson printers. He actually called me all the way from Italy. Good dude. He recommended sublimating it like normal because the inks for Epsons doesn't dry like the Sawgrass inks. I even placed it under the heat press for a while to attempt to dry the ink. I used the matte paper setting. I've only used it a couple of times since then, but the success I had was to transfer the easy subli to the garment first, then print, then sublimate like you would any other substrate. Since the easy subli has a bit of a flock texture to it, you're right. The image won't be as sharp as other smooth substrates. The image I was using was shot in a studio with professional gear so I know it isn't an image quality issue.
@@AirbrushingtipsNet yes that is what many people do now with the siser easysubli but its a pitty that you cant sublimate on the empty A4 sheet before you press it on the shirt, that would be my prefered way because you cut it with a cutter before you press it. In your method it is very tricky to create fonts or logos with complex shapes because you just can not align the sublimation paper on the shirt afterwards. This method is only good for basic shapes, like rectangles but i would still prefer print and cut. Maybe you can directly print onto the easysubli with normal paper setting because this way it lays down less ink. I will try the polyamid powder method, this method looks pretty good to me for sublimating on cotton
@@galawangac9423 i tried it with matte paper and standard paper but it doesnt matter that much because when you print direclty on it it will always look more blurred compared to the method B, sublimating on the easysubli HTV. The problem is that you need alot of time and high temperature to get good results and that on the other hand is poison for the easysubli i guess because you will destroy the glue and all that.
@@danbarb9728 thanks for the quick reply i have use plain paper on the settings but my problem is that sometimes it has some roller markings... i use 155c 15sec works fine for me. Im just worried printing on the siser easy subli as it creates roller markings even i have remove most of the roller markings. :(
Anyone have any clue on how to deal with the easy sub vinly not being able to take the high temp and melting on the short thus making the color of the shirt bleed through. An example would be easy sub on red shirt, sublimation on easy sub, image having a red hue due to easy sub not being able to withstand the heat. At least I think that's the issue.
@@AirbrushingtipsNet thank you for the reply I appreciate it quick question do you first heat press the easy subli and then heat the sublimation paper after its been pressed on the shirt or do you do both at the same time
@@link973 I do the easy subli first and then sublimate it like anything else. The problem could be with the shirt itself, but I'm no expert. Have you tried the easy subli on other colors?
@@AirbrushingtipsNet I'm going to run a few test I think your right about the shirt tho. I realized it was 60 cotton and 40 poly I will attempt on a fully cotton shirt
@@link973 If I had to guess, the dyes they used on the poly portion are releasing when the shirt when you're pressing the easy subli. Again, no expert, but that makes the most sense to me.
Can you please tell me what do you mean by substrate. Iam new to this and I'm trying to sublimate on black tee shirt. Can u please explain or make a video shoeing this. Thank you.
The substrate is the actual material you are using.....example a cotton t shirt is the substrate. So you would first print your design using your printer onto your A Sub transfer paper then tack down (heat press your Easy Subli transfer paper onto your t shirt or other material) then you heat press your image directly onto the Easy Subli transfer.
