This kind of ink made of disperse dyes will sublime and dye the substrate at the transfer temperature.
The high-quality sublimation ink should not block the nozzle, the color is vivid and the stability is good.

4. Adjust the appropriate color density before printing
Adjust the color density in the computer to avoid excessive ink that is not easy to dry.
After adjustment, you need to check the effect of thermal transfer.

5. Adjust the appropriate temperature and time when transfer
The temperature range of thermal transfer is about 180-230℃, and the time is about 10-30 seconds.
A small test should be done to determine the best process parameters before the formal batch transfer.

6. The hot pressing surface must be close to the heat transfer

and there should be no gaps, otherwise the transfer image and text will be blurred.
