Love your content. After the first print you said you moved your rollers bc I have the same printer & keep getting those same streaks...how did you move your rollers?
Thanks for sharing...not sure if its the camera, but it looks like the fine powder is sitting on the image. I noticed the same when I did the hack on a white shirt. I guess this is normal for the hack possibly. I prefer sublimation over all unless it is a true DTF printer...those images always look flawless.
If you are using a good dtf powder and film, it is absolutely beautiful. The colors are more vibrant than sublimation. I use a Sawgrass SG500 actual sublimation printer, the converted Epson 2720 and a converted Epson 8550. If you get your ICC codes in, that machine is incredible! I like it better than my Sawgrass.
I am so glad you did this using this printer because I have the same printer that I converted. I want to try this same hack on my pritner...my image is more of a photo and not a full page and some words...I may try it to see...but thanks for sharing!! I will share my results as well😊
For those asking about the roller marks, just incase no one answered it......printer settings....Maintenance....extended settings....print densety -4, or reduce until you dont see the lines.....i use the same setting on both my epson F100/170 and epson ET 2811..........personaly i am not over keen on the powder "hack" , for me it feels too waxy on dark cotton. but a lot have succeeded i think....hope this helps at least someone.
I have an 8550 ET and I keep getting about a half inch line across the bottom of my prints. Almost as if the print head is putting down a extra layer of ink. Does anyone know why
Oracal 651 white, you can use a white glitter, you can also get HTVRont film for sublimating on dark fabric in matte and glossy. There is also Siser Easy Subli. They all work well.
Hey I like your Videos! Can you tell me please if the print quality has improved much as you changed to the six color printer? I make the stuff just for fun and I have also the Epson 8550 but I'm thinking to change to the SC-T 2100 for printing direct from the roll on the Siser Easy Color DTV. But it has only four colors and I'm not sure if the print quality is worse or if it's equal because the DTV isn't as good as photo papers and I woudn't see much of a difference. Thanks and go on with the Videos. People like it :)
Thank you. I will say with the added 2 colors, I feel like the color is more true. Sometimes with sublimation the colors come out a tad bit altered. But with the other 2, I haven’t had those issues
Has anyone had there image come up off the white vinyl? I have did this hack a coulple times and after the first wash it comes up? I used the same film and powder in this video
@yourslottybestfriend4355 that is what you are saying...the sublimation ink does not stick to the vinyl, right? When you wash it a few times, it comes off?
