HI Folks, quick question..
I have recently come across this issue where i'm getting a blank spot on the printed t shirt after sublimating. I have recently swapped out the old heat platen for a new one that I had stored (chinese press)
You can see the white 3/4 of the way down on the E, I can also see the ink still on the paper.
I did a previous test print to this one and it was much worse as the pressure was crap really so i raised the base plate of the press to compensate, the images here are not as bad as the first but this was printed at pretty firm pressure.
I checked the platen yesterday as i had swapped it out and the temp in the middle of the platen was bang on (within a few degrees)
I'm using sublisure inks printed on the trusty Ricoh 3110, 60 seconds press time, firm pressure at 374 f (190 c) Chinese press (old platen swapped out for a hardly used one)
I'm gonna test again later with the old platen to see if i get the same
Anybody else had this?
