Ecotank Sublimation conversion kit with dampers and dyesub inks

Sublimation Conversion Kit

This kit comes with everything you need to covert your Epson EcoTank printer from regular ink to Dye Sublimation Ink (Dyesub). Complete with thorough instructions showing you step by step how to remove your regular inks from the EcoTank printers, replacing the dampers and re-filling with sublimation inks. When changing from regular inks to sublimation inks it is recommended to change the dampers. We can also provide rihac's ICC colour correction file that can be used in Photoshop, Corel Draw or any other program that allows third party ICC profiles. An ICC profile will correct colours allowing you to create more photo realistic images as native sublimation ink can print quite dark compared to regular inks.

About Sublimation

Sublimation Ink is a specialised product used for printing images onto garments or sublimation treated products (i.e. mugs). Once an image is printed onto 'sublimation paper' the image is transferred using a heat press. The application of heat and pressure causes the dyes in the image to convert to a gas. The heat applied to the object being printed causes the 'pores' of the object to open. Rapid removal of the heat causes these 'pores' to close and the gas (now trapped in the 'pores') converts back to a solid, leaving the coloured image.

Precautions

Dye Sublimation inks have a higher viscosity and overall consistency to OEM inks (i.e. Normal ink used in general printing) It is widely accepted that the life of the printer is reduced when using it with specialised inks such as sublimation. It is also recommended to use the printer frequently or run weekly head cleaning cycles to reduce the chance of print head blockages caused by dried ink.  Ink Dampers should be replaced as part of your regualr printer servicing (bi-annual).

Widely regarded as the best choice in aftermarket ink products, Rihac Sublimation inks are universally profiled to suite Epson printers. Rihac is a multi-award-winning brand including a winner of both the Australian and World Brand Awards 2017 for product excellence.
