Hi! I packed in sublimation printing a few years ago, but having moved house I came across my old equipment. I thought I might do a little hobby printing, just for family and friends.
I have the printer, press, paper, mugs and other blanks - but I need some sublimation ink.
I was using some ink I got from the States, but they stopped selling it years ago - I assume because of the SG patent. I have searched the forums on here, but suprisingly, even though I understood that the SG patent stranglehold was supposed to end some years ago, there does not appear to be any new cheap ink options/recommendations. There are plenty on eBay, but I was expecting there to be some modestly priced, mainstream inks available by now.
Can anybody recommend any inks - whether from eBay, or from a known supplier, or a particulat make? My printer is an Epson Workforce B1100.
Assuming the SG patent has run out, why has the ink world not changed?
Sorry if my message is compromising any continuing SG restriction, please let me know if it is. PM me if that helps.
Many thanks
Dave
