Mac Print Settings for Sublimation using Silhouette Studio

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

PLEASE NOTE: There’s a step during install that is commonly missed that you need to do correctly in order to have all the print options.
- Make sure you have the drivers installed.
- Delete the printer from your computer.
- Click the + button to add it back.
- When you reach the step that has a drop down menu that defaults to “Secure AirPrint” change that drop down selection to the model of your printer.
- Finish the setup process.
Your settings should now be there.

How to get in and change the setting in Silhouette when printing sublimation designs. I use Cosmos Ink (shrsl.com/1lpq3) and print with Silhouette. If you are printing with a different program the settings should look similar but will not be the exact same. If you use different ink you may need to use different settings as well, but this is how you get into those settings to change them to test what works best for you.

    Hi Debbie! I am not seeing all the options like yours shows. I only have layout, media & quality, paper handling, and cover page. I don't see anything else.

    Go to file > page setup and make sure the paper size is set correctly there. Sometimes it is really stubborn with “custom” paper sizes and/or that borderless option. Try turning borderless on or off and see if that changes anything. Otherwise you might need to choose a standard paper size that’s close. I’ve had some it just refused to do correctly. There doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason. It just won’t do some sizes for me.

    You need to make sure the print drivers are installed. And once you do, make sure NOT to choose the AirPrint option during install. Delete the printer and re-install it. When you get to the step that has a drop down that is defaulted to “Secure AirPrint” change that drop down option to the model of your printer.
