What factors determine the drying time of sublimation paper?

As more and more people choose large format sublimation printing, jumbo roll sublimation paper is becoming more and more popular. At the same time, a problem has arisen: the production efficiency is not as fast as traditional dyeing because the sublimation paper cannot dry completely in time. Even if a sublimation printer can print very quickly, the problem of slow drying slows down the production process.

So what are the reasons that determine the drying of sublimation paper? This article will give you popularization.

-The Grrams of the sublimation paper

When we use high speed sublimation printers, paper with higher grammage will dry slower than sublimated paper with lower grammage.Because the ink output speed is so fast, then it can not match the high grammage of the paper. Of course, this problem can be solved by asking for a lower-grams sublimation paper.

-Sublimation ink

There are a variety of sublimation inks on the market, and some inexpensive inks, their main component is water, rather than sublimation dyes. So print on paper is mainly water, then this is an important reason why the paper can not dry quickly after printing.

Also the drying time is related to the printing temperature and humidity, the optimal printing temperature and humidity has been told in the previous article.
