What is sublimation printing?

Sublimation is the process of transferring a printed image onto a surface through heat and pressure.

Mugs that have images on are usually produced in this fashion, but that is not all.
Sublimation can also be used for fabric printing, glass picture tiles, custom phone cases, and much more.

For all the information you may need check out our Sublimation FAQ page.

Why the ET-1810?

Not only is this printer easy to use, but it offers excellent value and includes some amazing functions you won’t find on other printers.

The main attraction of this printer is the Ecotank, and the biggest advantage of it is the fact that it will never ask for ink.
No ink out messages will interrupt your printing, meaning you can stack up the paper feed and leave it printing indefinitely.
In other words the printer will never stop printing as long as it has ink in the tank and paper in the feed.

For this reason alone multiple customers have switched to this system.

Moreover, the print quality is outstanding for a 4 colour machine.
Images are rich in colour and transferred images lose no detail.

Key features;

• Print only – no scanner / copier facility
• Wireless function (WiFi)
• Easy fill Ecotank system

Connectivity-

Ink Experts support and recommend USB cable connection; although a lot of printer models we supply do support WIFI connectivity we strongly recommend to connect your printer via a USB cable. A USB printer cable (A to B type) is supplied with all our packages, some computers may require a USB C to B type depending on the available port.

We recommend USB cable connection for the following reasons:

• WIFI connection often affects the colour management settings and ICC colour profiles
• WIFI signal can be interrupted causing data transfer issues; printer delay or pausing during print jobs
• WIFI signal can be slow; affecting overall print speed
