Does a printer have to be un used to work with sublimation?

[quasar]

I have an Sx235W which had the wrong ink in and then I got the right ink and did some head cleans and printed four pages out and it works fine

I tried to buy new but Argos screwed it up not telling me the model I wanted was discontinued and a new one (which doesn't have cartridges for it yet) sold in its place! I had already ordered the cartridges so... Now I need a new printer to match them!

At the end of the day its a gamble experiance tells me that unless you are proficent with printers and dye sublimation then you are risking it is the printer in question a supported printer would it be wiser to cut your loses and by new you can always resell the carts but id consider your next move carefully and before taking advice be sure its wise advice
