How to Convert an Epson Printer to Sublimation 1. IntroductionBy enabling the conversion of an ordinary Epson wide format printer into a dedicated sublimation printer, InkOwl allows you to affordably enter into sublimation printing. InkOwl's Performance-Ultra Sublimation Ink is competitively-priced and manufactured in the United States. Can be used for maximum convenience. Are also available for maximum savings and flexibility.With sublimation ink, it is essential that the ink not come into contact with any other ink (Epson ink, other aftermarket, other sublimation brand). As such, please follow these conversion guidelines closely.Epson 2100, 2200, R2400, R2880 printers: Please note that these procedures do not apply to these printers. For these models, simply install the sublimation ink into a set of refillable cartridges and perform printhead cleanings until the old ink is flushed out.

Converting a brand-new Epson printerIf your Epson printer is brand-new, out-of-box, and has never been used with ink inside, you can proceed straight to using our inks. Do not install the Epson cartridges provided with the printer.

Instead, either install a set of refillable cartridges with Performance-Ultra bottled ink or a set of Performance-Ultra compatible cartridges.Note: Some printers have two black slots (photo black + matte black). Only the matte black slot needs to be used. Therefore, you should install a (or some ) into the photo black slot, as this slot will not be used in printing.Recommended items. To use sublimation ink bottles:.

Set of InkOwl Performance-Ultra Sublimation Inks. Set of Refillable Cartridges. Chip Resetter. Printers that have two black slots: Photo Black Cleaning Cartridge or Bottled Purge Fluid3. Converting a used Epson printerIf your Epson printer is currently using any other ink (Epson-brand ink, aftermarket ink, another brand of sublimation ink), it is required that you purge all old ink from the printer's lines prior to installing InkOwl Performance-Ultra Sublimation Ink. To use sublimation ink bottles:. Set of InkOwl Performance-Ultra Sublimation Inks.

Set of Refillable Cartridges. Chip Resetter. Set of Cleaning Cartridges OR 2nd Set of Refillable Cartridges & Bottled Purge Fluid. Spare Maintenance Tank or Maintenance Tank Resetter4.

After converting the printerWith your printer now converted to InkOwl Performance-Ultra Sublimation Ink, you can begin sublimation printing. For best results, print your images onto a transfer paper specifically intended for sublimation printing. Transfer the prints using an appropriately-sized heat press onto the sublimation blank (imprintable) of your choice!Although it is possible to obtain decent results without color management, the color gamut will be severely limited. To produce professional-grade sublimated materials, color management is required. A custom ICC profile will need to be installed into Photoshop or into your RIP software.

You can produce this profile yourself using a device such as ColorMunki or SpyderPRINT. Alternatively, with the purchase of a full set of Performance-Ultra inks, you can benefit from InkOwl's complimentary profiling service.

Some how, back in February of 2006, I found out about Continuous Ink Systems (CIS) and begin my search. I came across a man selling what I deemed to be a good system to try on E-Bay, and through a few emails, discovered he lived just up the street from me.

I bought my first CIS from him within a week.A CIS supplies “phony” cartridges with ink continuously from large reservoirs out side the printer with silicon tubing. The average home printer cartridge holds only 8-15ml of ink, and the CIS I bought comes pre loaded with 100ml of ink in each color container.

That’s a lot of cartridges worth of ink!I took a chance getting this system as I realized this very important truth. The Ink cost as much as the printer, so I am only out the cost of the CIS, as the printer is pretty much disposable. It is a bloody shame, but true for most entry level photo printers.Just read some of the replies to, that claims someone did the math, and realized that if one were to fill an Olympic sized swimming pool with ink from cartridges, it would cost 5.9 BILLION DOLLARS!Some of the replies are:Just Buy a New One by Ryan on Feb 6th, 2007 @ 6:12amI just bought a new printer instead of buying ink.It was cheaper.Yeah, I threw away a perfectly good printer, but hey I’ll be throwing away another perfectly good printer in a couple months when it runs out of ink too. Saves me about $20 that way.How long until our landfills are nothing but piles of working printers?By Overcast on Feb 6th, 2007 @ 7:32amWe bought a 25$ Ink Jet Printer– Took one look at the price of Ink for it – and went to Staples and bought a Laser Jet the day it ran out of ink.Anyhoo – I have refilled it 5 times now, and have printed almost 2000 full color almost full page 8.5 x 11 highest quality prints on high resolution ink jet paper, and over 300 8.5 x 11 borderless glossy photo prints.Believe me when I tell you each new photo print looks like the first. Bright crisp, sharp and colorful. Totally awesome black levels and blinding colors!!I own an Epson R200 printer, which prints on CDs and DVDs as well. (I actually own and operate 2- R200s, one Epson CX7800 all in one and a larger format 13″ wide Epson 1280).

I purchased a CIS for the 1280, and get stunning 13″ x 19″ photos, and made some breath taking 13″ x 30″ panoramic. (Using a roll feeder) see my setup in the picture belowMine is an isobarically balanced system, requiring no priming or needles. It’s a 5 minute set up. Image fromI believe I have saved over $2000.00CAD between my 3 printers so far.A note about the ink- The Epson R200/300 series and the 1280 use Dye ink. It is not waterproof, and may not last longer then 10-15 years without fading.

The CX7800 uses Durabrite ink, which is pigment based and is archival- 50+ years, water resistant, fade resistant. This archival ink is very expensive, and hard to come by in bulk. So if you are happy with a print that is truly photo quality, but may not last forever, the CIS is for you.For text, it is actually cheaper than a laser printer. Probably less than one cent worth of ink per page.

It is a photo printer, so I suggest the use of a laser printer if all you do is text. They are built to last longer, and fewer moving parts.The shop that sells CIS for Epson printers here in the GTA isFeel free to contact me via e-mail for any questions. These systems sell on the internet and on eBay for under $100. The replacement ink is about $10 per 100ml/colour. Using high quality photo paper available in bulk (150 sheets for $22.00) at Costco for.15¢ per sheet, add less then.15¢ for the ink and you have an 8×10/ 8.5 x 11 for only.30¢!!! (2- 5″ x 7″ for.15¢ each or 3- 4″x6″ for.10¢ each)If you buy a brand new printer for $129 and a CIS for $79, your first 300 full page photos on photo paper cost only.84¢ each.

That’s a sweet deal compared to some places that want $5 for an 8×10. Even Wal-Mart and Costco here in Toronto want $2.99.Here are some shots of my Epson R200 hooked up. Hope this helps RudiHere is a shot of me holding a picture I took and printed of my brother in laws wedding on my 1280 printer.I am standing in front of another picture I printed and had plaqued. I figure the large pictures cost me maybe forty cents in ink.

The paper I have I got on sale for forty five cents. I buy generic paper made in Toronto for about a dollar sixty otherwise. Still, under two bucks for a 13 x 19! So you see that at least having cartridges refilled is not just cost effective, but environmentally responsible as well.Let me tell you the joy I have now being able to print to my hearts content and not worry about ink cartridges. Thanks to stores like Costco, by paper supply is inexpensive as well. I get a thrillEvery time a full page 8.5″ x 11″ photo rolls off the printer at a cost of less then.35¢.

Even Costco and Wal-Mart charge $2.99 for an 8×10! THIS IS BIG NEWS!!My 13″ x 19″ prints cost me under $2.00 if I buy paper at club prices and I scored some paper for under.50¢ per sheet so I am under a buck for a large print!Darn! This is not rocket science – it is down to earth economics! Do you want to pay $100 for a new set of cartridges or $80 for 10 sets of equivalent ink?. March 4th update – 2007 To date I have helped 3 friends get CIS and 2 more have just bought Epson printers and are ready to be hooked up.This article was contributed by Rudi Jock – who in additions to his photographic skills – sees the “big picture” and helps save money on the final printed image. He also has a, and here is the direct link to his.

I have a CIS, and I have loved it, but I have a hard time finding a printer that will keep working. My understanding is that you have to have a printer that has ink cartridges that are stationaryso, I found 2 old HP Officejet Pro All-in-one’s on craigslistthey both did wonderfully for awhile, but are now not working. I want to keep using the CIS, but I have to find a reliable printer. Do I see correctly that yours is working in a printer that has ink cartridges that move back and forth??? What printer do you recommend?
