We are stepping up our sublimation game by converting an Epson EcoTank ET-15000 inkjet printer into a sublimation printer with Hiipoo Sublimation Ink. While we started with the smaller EcoTank 2720 model, we quickly realized that we wanted a sublimation printer that could do wide format printing. So when Hiipoo reached out and asked us to test out their sublimation ink for EcoTank printers, we had a great reason to upgrade to the EcoTank 15000 for sublimation.
Traditional sublimation printers can be quite expensive, so converting the Epson EcoTank inkjet printer into a sublimation printer was a much more cost efficient route to go.
We converted this EcoTank 15000 printer into a sublimation printer using Hiipoo Sublimation Ink, which now comes in bottles that fit the EcoTank perfectly--no syringes required! As we show you in this video, converting an Epson EcoTank 15000 to a sublimation printer is an easy process, especially with the new Hiipoo Sublimation Ink bottles.
We also got a pre-release package of the NEW Hiipoo Sublimation paper, which is designed to work with their sublimation ink. We do a few sublimation tests with their ink and paper to show you how it works. Be sure to subscribe to our channel and ring the bell so you'll be notified when their paper is available on Amazon - we have a special video ready to publish when the Hiipoo Sublimation Paper is available for purchase.
So follow along with us as we convert an Epson EcoTank 15000 to a sublimation printer. And of course, let us know if you have any questions in the comments below!

This is a really good printer ru-vid.comUgkxciSwynMJ7PnUvvx11rewiu-yFBkZTl53 . The reason I gave 4 stars for tech support (which I don't think this would classify as tech support) is because once you turn the printer on, it does require a little bit of start up time which may bother some who are in a hurry to quickly print something. To offset that though the printer prints very quickly. I would definitely purchase this printer again.

Your designs have great color. I have the ET 15000 and the Hippo ink but I have been using the A-sub paper and the output never looks like the image in photoshop. Are you using an ICC profile? What color management are you using? I’m so frustrated with the sublimation process and have wasted so much paper trying to get the colors to match. I was using presentation matte not photo matte. I will give that a try. Any further assistance with the color management is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Was i supposed to put the software on my Pc? Did yours come with usb cable?

@JustMightDIY 6 месяцев назад

It didn't come with any USB cable. No software for computer. Once the printer is on it should be "discoverable" as a printer and you would be prompted in case you need any drivers . Otherwise it might need to be tethered via USB. The other way is to go to Epsons website and download a printer tool

We'll run two printhead cleanings and then let rest for a day then don't again. Usually comes out nice, even after a couple years. These epson et have a little tendency to get plugged up, just a problem because of the sub ink. Printing regularly helps prevent the problem

Can you convert to sublimation if it has been used to inkjet?

@JustMightDIY 4 месяца назад

Yes, but you would need a kit to wash out all the old ink jet ink. It's messy. It costs time. And it really shortens the lifespan of the machine. We think it is more appropriate to get one and start the sublimation conversion immediately. BTW. Ours has been working great for 2+ years now

@lillismawmaw Месяц назад

One other thing, does it tell you that it is not Epson ink. My WF-7610 that I converted always tells me with each color that it is not Epson ink....pain!

Would you pleases help me what i should do or can do ? this is going to be for my living business. Pleases i need your help i hope i will hear from you soon Thank you much

@JustMightDIY Год назад

Hi, If you put the ink jet ink in the printer and intended to use the printer for sublimation then you need to pull the tanks and drain them, clean them and then flush the lines and print heads. This takes a long time to flush throughly and can be done but it's a stress on the machineand will shorten its life span. But once you do you can install the sublimation ink. Also consider there are media for designing shirts with inkjet ink. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1pmhCbGLQQE.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-33kxzjmZpJ4.html

@JustMightDIY 2 года назад

Hello. After you convert the 15000 into a sublimation printer, you’ll need to print your designs on sublimation paper and then press your prints onto materials that have a high polyester count. So, you’ll need to find out of the canvas is a cotton canvas (which won’t work).

@oktacooks 2 года назад

@@JustMightDIY thank you for your answer but I still don't get it. It's just for canvas material. Canvas tote bag

@JustMightDIY 2 года назад

Hi there. You can’t print directly on the bag. Sublimation needs to be heated to activate. So the printout on paper will need to be pressed with a heat press. And it has to go on a polyester material, or it won’t work.

@oktacooks 2 года назад

@@JustMightDIY hihi yes I know it can't be direct. I need to print design on sublimation paper and then with heat press to the bag. But since you said that it only works on polyester I am hesitate to buy that printer. Do you have an advice what method or maybe printer should I buy to make costum bag on Canvas material?

@JustMightDIY 2 года назад

You could look into inkjet printable transfers. We have a video on ones by Hiipoo. You can also look into printable vinyls. One last option that would be for sublimation is to sublimate onto a white glitter HTV that you adhere to the bag. Hope these options help!

@kilahlipstick9687 2 года назад

New sub thank you for the information. I have a question about the 15000. I have been using an Espn 7720 the thing I hate is the false empty cartridge readings. Seeing that the 15000 doesn't use cartridges is it better meaning does it provide accurate on-screen ink level readings and can I top the ink off anytime I want to and does it last longer printing that the 7720? Lastly what maintenance do you perform and how often and does it take a maintenance box?

@JustMightDIY 2 года назад

Hi and thank you for sub and comment! We never got into epson cartridge printers so we can answer some. We never looked for ink level dashboard, especially since you can see the ink level right through the physical windows on the front of the printer. We've been using it for over a year with not needing too refill. Ours is filled with sub ink so it must be used on average once a week to prevent the sublimation ink from congealed. Yes you can top off your ink as you please. Never had a stress with maintenence other than keeping it in frequent use to prevent blockage, but again that's sublimation ink. Hope this was helpful and thanks again

It is VERY important to get the ink that has the epson tops. I went the other route and I regret it. I lost the Magenta bottle and I thought I was being slick by just washing out one of the other bottles and putting my ink in there. NOPE! Epson made each color have a specific "key" to their tops for each color. Thats great on their part since it helps people not loading the wrong color into the wrong tank. But for sublimation it sucked not having the right top. I cleaned up my ink mess and learned my lesson. Great video and thank you for sharing.

Great videos, lose the dude, gal has a great flow and voice. Also, invest in a wireless mic to improve sound. Everything else is spot on.

Thanks for watching and commenting, it means a lot to us. And by us I mean she won't let me out of the crafting room any more. I've begged but she locks the door and feeds me scraps from under it. Keeps saying without me it just wouldn't be the same. Please save me in that glittery '64 impala (was that a 289 v8?). Also, we tried wireless. It sucked. 😉

@@JustMightDIY well if u must stick around try to not be a robot being forced to talk about your craft! Lol. But for real, good work, sound i get it you can only do so much. I would still try a mic. As for my 64, it was a 327 v8. I air bagged myself and painted. Now with 2 kids my other 3 just sit. 64 drop, 60 impala, 57 chevy. Keep up the good work. Videos are great and informative without dragging on too long. Ill keep tuning in to see her pretty smile and voice! Lol. U try and hang in there if u must…. Take care

I know how fun a classic can be. Long ago I had a 63 4 door. Just loved driving it. I know some times the computer stuff is a bit over my head but we made this channel together. We inspire each other creatively and play well off the others strengths. As long as we have fun doing it, we're good. Even without wireless mics. For now.

Cosmos Ink and Crafting Besties are the best materials

@JustMightDIY 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing your opinion. We’ve tried Cosmos and found it to produce quality results. However, we continue to be delighted by the performance of the Hiipoo ink. Have you tried Hiipoo before or just Cosmos?

@DeannaWilliams75 Год назад

Are you using the et 15000 with cosmo if so what are your settings? I’m starting over and wondering if I should try a different ink.

@JustMightDIY Год назад

Our ET15000 is filled with hiipoo ink, as is in the description links. We tried cosmos first, then hiipoo, then starcraft inks. Hiipoo does have good quality ink. Definitely recommend

@DeannaWilliams75 Год назад

@@JustMightDIY I’m not getting good quality with the Hippo ink on my 15000… which is why I’m thinking of switching ink.

@hybridepigenes 11 месяцев назад

utterly unhelpful. I wanted to know how you replace the regular ink with sublimation ink!

@JustMightDIY 11 месяцев назад

There's a reason why that's not what this video covers. It's a waste of time and equipment. You will shorten the life of your printer dramatically and spend hours of your own life on it. Just buy a new printer and save yourself the stress.
