Hi, Nice to see you. The heavy snow has stopped. Everywhere all white, looks so beautiful. In china snow means it will bring a good harvest for the new year. So best wishes for you. Yesterday I have share you there common problems in your digital inkjet printing and give you some ways about how to solve it. In the printing industry, it can be mainly divided into the screen printing and the sublimation printing. Then today in order to late you know more about them I will share you more difference about them.
Screen Printing
Screen printing refers to the use of screen as a base, and through the method of plate-making , made a printing plate with graphic screen . Screen printing consists of five main elements: screen printing plate, scraper, ink, printing stations and substrates. Use the screen printing plate graphic part of the mesh the ink can through it, non-graphic part of the mesh can not be printed through the basic principles of ink. Printing in one end of the screen printing plate into the ink, with a scraper of ink on the screen printing plate to impose a certain pressure on the other side at the same time toward the screen printing plate moving at a constant speed, the ink is moving scraper from the graphic Part of the mesh extrusion to the substrate.
Then the screen printing also have many characteristics. Firstly, the screen printing have strong adaptability.Screen printing can not only print on the plane, but also in the curved surface, spherical and concave and convex printing on the substrate. What's more, screen printing can not only printing in hard objects , but also in the soft printing, free from the limitations of the texture of the substrate. Secondly, it has strong sense of three-dimensional and light fastness. Apart from this the screen printing also have large printing area, today the largest screen printing products up to 3 meters × 4 meters, or even larger.
But is also have the disadvantages. For example, this technology is not suitable for the small orders and sometimes if you need more different colors and your cost will be higher. Secondly, this technology is not environmentally friendly and the technology is relative complexity.
Sublimation printing
Sublimation printing is use the special sublimation paper, sublimation ink and the sublimation printer for printing. A dye-sublimation printer is a computer printer which uses heat to transfer dye onto materials such as a plastic, card, paper, or fabric. The sublimation name was first applied because the dye was considered to make the transition between the solid and gas states without going through a liquid stage. This understanding of the process was later shown to be incorrect. There is some liquefying of the dye. Since then,the process is sometimes known as dye-diffusion, though this has not eliminated the original name. Many consumer and professional dye-sublimation printers are designed and used for producing photographic prints, ID cards, clothing, and more.
Same as the screen printing, the sublimation printing also have many advantages. Firstly, your patterns printed and transferred are permanent and can not peel or fade also the colors are brilliant and vividly. Secondly, in your process of printing you don't need to worry the dye build up on the fabric.The image can be printed all over the entire item, with no difficulty in printing all the way to the edges.
Also the disadvantages are as follows, sometime you should take a high cost to by a high quality sublimation printer, or your printing speed will be low and your working effect will not better enough. Then any creases in the apparel during printing leave blank spots behind. And the printing area is limited, the print range depends on the width of your printer.Mostly the width of the sublimation printer are 1.2m, 1.8m, 3.2m.
Okay, These all above are my introduce about the sublimation printing and screen printing. Also the share about the advantages of them.

Hi, Nice to see you. How are you today? It is a sad day for me, because today is the National Sacrament Day of the Victims in Nanjing Massacre, eighty years ago the history, past the dust of history, came to our eye. We should keep in mind the history, guarding the peace.
Okay, stop the sadness and back to our topic. In my last articles I have shared you about how to use the sublimation technology to finish your one step T-shirt product production. While as a necessary material in the T-shirt transfer process, there must have many problems when you operate it. And now in order to help you have a better T-shirt printing effect today I will share you some ways and tips to help you solve the common problems when use the T-shirt transfer paper.
Tip 1 Color Subdued of The Pattern
In the process of sublimation transfer , the color will be lost, first of all in Photoshop to adjust the picture when the brightness, contrast and color depth, so as to ensure that the transfer is out of what you want. In addition, just print out the pictures do not immediately printed, to dry for a period of 3-8 minutes (according to the climate at that time), so that ink penetration into the paper, roughly 5 minutes. The color may be light for you to use a long time, you can reduce the time to improve the temperature to try. In addition, thermal transfer paper can only be used once, do not re-use.
Tip 2 Failure Transfer of The Pattern
There may be your pressure is not enough, the temperature is low or too short time caused by the first pressure to adjust the larger, time and temperature of the appropriate rise. There is to see if your printed side is reversed.
Tip 3 Fade of The Color Appear
It is possible that your ink is not the original ink, the paper is not absorbed into it. In addition there is printed clothes do not immediately wash, to be separated after 24 hours of washing, the clothes turned over to wash. While increasing the pressure, time and temperature values will prevent fade.
Tip 4 Fade under The Sunshine
This is the sun's ultraviolet light to make it fade, has nothing to do with the transfer paper, only with the ink, poor ink does not add any anti-UV agent, will soon fade, the quality of the long duration, but long-term in the sun Exposure, fade speed will be accelerated.
Tip 5 Fade after Washing
Wash fade of transfer paper and ink have a great relationship, because the dye ink is easy to dissolve in water, so not as good as not dissolve in the water pigment ink is good.
At present, as a personalized inkjet printing heat transfer, the principle of transfer paper is to use its film at high temperatures to melt the ink inside, and then melt on the fabric. To achieve the "transfer" results. So the poor transfer paper adhesive layer will be washed off slowly, resulting in fading. This thermal transfer method is the most common, almost 95% of the above is this method, this method has special requirements on the fabric, must be high cotton or cotton. Many problems arise because the customer can not figure out the content caused by the effect of error.
Know this principle, you know that this transfer is not what water transfer, nor is it a thermal transfer, in the clothing printing industry called hot offset printing. Although some people said that their own test proved that there is indeed the existence of water transfer T-shirt transfer paper exists, and the effect is very good. In fact, the basic principles of water transfer and inkjet printer ink to understand some of the common sense, to know whether this understanding is correct. Unless the weak solvent or resin and other ink directly printed on the clothes, or regardless of any inkjet printer ink, is the pigment ink or dye ink, in the wash, the number will be fading phenomenon.
Tip 6 The Relationship between Ink And Transfer Paper
As a light-colored T-shirt printing: can use ordinary ink to print, the picture quality is high, but the screen part of the excess to be trimmed, and the quality of the paper must be good, the screen after the transfer to smooth, and so on 24 hours after cleaning does not fade, can. And hot sublimation ink turn on the layer of solid color, but also need to play the picture, the difference is that it applies cotton, but feel the ordinary ink did not sublimation ink transfer transfer is good, and if the paper is not easy to fade So dark? The same can use ordinary ink to print, the picture quality is high, the picture does not need to fight, for a variety of fabrics, it is similar with the high-performance heat transfer, but the glue side to be trimmed, you can match with the high-elastic heat transfer, and its Advantages on the convenience of no plate, but the cost is high, and if the quality is not easy to fade, smoke, burst, intolerant washing, not strong, hard and thick and can not transfer the distress.
Okay, These all above are my share about how to solve the common problems when use the T-shirt transfer paper in the process of T-shirt transfer.

Hi, Nice to see you. In my last articles I have hared you about our many sublimation printing and transferring materials. Then in order to let you have a deeper understanding, today I will have a detailed introduction about the one step solution for the T-shirt produce with the sublimation technology.
Step 1 Printing
Have a personal produce with your T-shirt you should print the patterns you want firstly. Then with the technology of sublimation, you need to use the special sublimation ink, sublimation paper and sublimation printer. Take care when you choose the sublimation paper you should make sure the material of your fabric in the following transfer process. If your fabric is elasticity, such as cotton you should better choose the sticky sublimation paper. And if not you can just choose the fast dry sublimation paper.
Step 2 Transferring
After you print your patterns successfully, you need to transfer the patterns from the sublimation paper into the fabric. In the process, you need to use the rotary heat transfer machine. Put the sublimation paper above the fabric, and then under the high pressure and temperature your patterns will be transferred onto the fabric with vivid color. Also take care choose the right size and width of your machine. This width should better suitable for our fabric. While if you choose a large machine for your small size fabric, it will waste you lot money and electricity.
Step 3 Cutting
Finished the printing and transferring of the pattern, the next step is the cutting. Use the laser cutting machine, put the fabric transferred with patterns on the cutting machine and then the contour of the T-shirt will be cut in high efficiency and precision. Same attention with the rotary heat press machine, choose the right size and width of your machine. Apart from this, make sure how many beams and cutting head of this machine do you need. Whatever, double cutting head and beams will have a better working efficiency than the only one. Also the price would be higher.
Step 3 Sewing
With the cut and transferred T-shirt , the last step is the sewing. You only need to sew the fabric cut together with the sewing machine. And then your T-shirt will be produced successfully with good performance.

When people use the Epson digital printers they may encounter waste ink hints, but most of them don't know how to solve this problem . Then they will search on the internet and the computer will tell them to reset the ink waste counter and operate printer maintenance program. But if it can really help them about it?
About Reset
Actually, ink counter reset just zeros out waste ink counter from the printer which does not solve the problem from the source.
Just do printer program resetting without cleaning the waste ink pad, waste ink in the pad still continues to increase. When the printer keeps working, once the pad filled with ink, overflow will come up. More serious consequence is that the waste ink flow do damage to the internal circuit board (cause short circuit).Although the waste ink don’t overflow, waste ink steam will also damage to the printer circuit boards, action mechanism and even the shower nozzle.
About Waste Ink Alarm
There are some friends think when printer ink waste warned super capacity, waste ink pad isn’t really full, so there is no need to clean the waste ink pad.
Actually in many places, such as: high temperature region, when printer ink alarm, waste ink pad is not much full of ink, and printer manufacturers left some space reservation on the waste ink alarm Settings to remind users in advance. However, if we do not attention it, variate in waste amount such as temperature, air humidity, printer if there is a leakage, etc. To avoid illusory indicator, you should know your printer very well, just look after it like your baby.
Okay, these all above are my share and some tips that you should pay attention to when the waste ink happen in your Epson printer. I think if you can do as I said you can solve this problem and maintain your printer in a right way.

Hi, Nice to see you. Did you make your own DIY before? Have you tried about the sublimation printing and transferring technology for the mug DIY transfer? If you have tried about it you must have met many kind of different problems in your DIY transfer process. Then today I will share you some tips about how to solve the common problems in the mug sublimation printing.
1.The image appears blurry
If the image is blurry, there’s a chance you may be over-pressing the mug,meaning the sublimation ink is gassing out and spreading over more area than it should. You can also tell if you’re over-pressing the mug if the black colors appear brownish.
2.Pay attention to the time and temperature
If you find that you can’t print the mugs well, i think you should check the time and temperature at the first time.Most mug presses will require different times and temperatures for pressing mugs (and water bottles, steins, etc.).
3.The mugs turn to yellowish after printing
If you’re just getting yellow shading on the mug, there’s a good chance you’re actually using inkjet ink, not sublimation ink (which is required to sublimate onto mugs).
4.The black color turn to greenish
If the black colors in your image appear greenish after pressing, it usually means you’re under-pressing the mug.
5.Get the best color of your sublimation ink
Use an ICC profile or Power Driver when printing with sublimation inks in order to get the best color out of your sublimation ink.
6.The quality of the original image
The quality of the image on the mug may be poor because the actual image quality is poor. We suggest a DPI of 300 for sublimation printing.
These all above are my share about the common problems in your mug sublimation printing. If you have any need or questions welcome to contact us at any time. We will provide you with the best quality product and service. Hope my article can be useful to you. Thank you for your reading.
