If you're looking to getting into dye sublimation printing the Epson ecotank printer is probably one of the cheapest avenues. In this video I show you the simple process of converting a new Eco Tank Epson Printer to be able to print using dye sublimating inks. It's quite easy really. Be sure to follow my channel for future sublimation projects and tips when working with dye sub.

    HI, a question. Is the material of the inks different from each other. And the filling inks, or are they all the same material, regardless of the colors. In other words, I can fill in all types of printers. Or is there a difference in the density of the material. I hope to find the answer.
