When I bought the printer oddly enough they gave me an extra light cyan Sawgrass cartridge - should I swap the faulty cyan that's blocking the printhead with this - Any thoughts?

When I bought the printer oddly enough they gave me an extra light cyan Sawgrass cartridge - should I swap the faulty cyan that's blocking the printhead with this - Any thoughts?
I didn't know that - The chap that instructed me to do this process said I shouldn't judge the fact it printed perfectly - he suggested the cyan was put into flood mode. When I bought the printer it...
I only got the Sawgrass sublimation inks with it - It's v frustrating because I've hardly used the machine at all
that why I can't see how the printhead itself could be damaged. It was fine before...
Hi Justin - If I was to return it to standard inks - do you think that may cure the problem? If so any idea on cost for these?
When running tests I was sent a file from Sawgrass which isolates the cyan only. I printed 3 x A1 sheets of cyan only which came out perfect - However running a nozzle check after I still had the...
I decided to upgrade to what I'm told is a more reliable machine the VJ 628. Part of the deal was to give up the warranty on the Epson. They didn't want the Epson back so I thought it was worth...
I have a problem with my Epson 7890 which is only 11 months old, hardly been used - in fact I didn't use it for a month which has caused the cyan printhead to be partially blocked. When running a...
Thanks Mark - Did you use a Teflon Pillow in the end and does it work? The link to Xpress shows some but they are very expensive - I looked the same item up on ebay where one can buy it individual...
Can anyone tell me where in the UK I can purchase some foam sheets to lay over t shirts on the heat press to avoid crease marks.
I watched a video and at 2.44 mins they illustrate how it works...

Thanks Paul - I shall give the 100% poly shirts a try - looks like I was given the wrong advice on the poly / cotton shirts then.

I bought an Epson 7890 and an Adkins heat press for the purpose of printing T shirts.
I then bought some Russell shirts 65 % poly 35% cotton to print on.
The company I bought the equipment from...
Thanks for the reassurance Janners. I'.ve been reading a few horror stories of people selling gear because printers have screwed up and all profits lost.
I was wondering if there was any kind of...
Thank you - your a star!

I'm reasonable technically minded but the problem is where do you go to get the instructions. I can't seem to find anything on YouTube. The owners of the first Epson printer listed said they can set...
I'm a designer setting up a T shirt company - I like the idea of sublimation as the print quality is great, no stock issues and it will give me lots of design flexibility.
I'm on a limited start up...
Thanks for the explanation - I'm new here - hopefully if I buy the right printer I can get some specific advice. Cheers B

I was pretty staggered by the price, I wonder how many kits they sell. However I wanted to know how easy it is to convert an Epson printer to a sublimation system - is it a case of changing the inks?...
I've been looking on eBay and found many large format Epson printers for sale from 7900 to 9400 to a couple of 9600 - the question is how easy is it to convert these to sublimation printers. Is it...
Not that I could afford it but I saw this package and was interested in the printer.
As one can buy it for around £759 + vat new I was wondering how difficult it would be to convert it has 9 slots...
Thanks for the advice - I got a feed back saying it perform very well up to the edge - the only thing wrong with it's been used for pressing aluminium and the rubber matt has become sticky and...
I've written to the press owners to get some feedback but how much would one allow for temp drop 10cm - 20cm?
Where the temp drops out - what happens to the image - does it fade out ?

In order to get a quote and give me an idea. I would prepare photoshop files to correct size say 4 different designs - and get 25 of each. If you like we can continue this conversation via email...
Does the rubber needing replacing bother you?
What would you charge per A2 sublimation sheet?
Also where are you based?
