July 26,2021
Thermal transfer and sublimation printers are often used in our lives, because their use makes our lives full of possibilities and more colorful. Two of these inks play a very big role. It helps realize the possibilities, but between the two what differences are there?
Property
Sublimation ink properties
The printing process of transferring sublimation heat transfer ink to fabric through transfer paper.
Thermal transfer ink properties
Mainly used for heating transfer printing products.
Features
Features of thermal transfer ink
When printing with pigment ink, it will not bleed even if it is printed on plain paper. Moreover, because the pigment itself is waterproof, it is not easy to be decomposed by ultraviolet rays, making it water and light resistant. Even if it is used outdoors, the printed matter can be maintained for more than one year without obvious signs of fading.
Features of sublimation ink
The pattern printed by this process is rich in layers, bright in color, ever-changing, small in color difference, and good in reproducibility.
The image will not fall off, crack or fade, and is wear-resistant and sun-proof, so sublimation heat transfer products have greater durability advantages.
It can achieve the effect required by the designer, suitable for mass production
The transfer process transfers the exquisite pattern on the transfer film to the surface of the product through one-time processing (heating, embossing) of the transfer machine, and the ink layer is integrated with the surface of the product after forming, which is vivid and beautiful, greatly improving the quality of the product.
Can sublimation ink be used in any printer?
Actually, as long as you have a printer that can use sublimation ink and paper that matches the ink, you can achieve this function. If your printer is not compatible, it will not be possible.
