Thank you. My ink set didn’t come with any instructions and I was worried the Epson 8550 instructions for their ink would not work with the Hiipoo bottles. 🙌🏻

I do not have the Epson 8550 but I think it has two different black inks. Did you buy the hiipoo ink set with the two different black inks? I know Angel B of Angel B Designs has the 8550. You might check her channel to see if she did a video of it.

Hi, Marilyn. I meant to send this comment earlier when I posted this video, but I fell asleep as soon as I got home. I was driving back from home from spending some time with twin sisters who are both my fellow breast cancer survivors. When went to Tanger Outlets in Pooler, Georgia and did some shopping and had lunch before heading back home. We try to spend time together periodically although we live in different cities…. Not too far apart. I refilled all of my EcoTank ink tanks at 4:00 A.M. yesterday. I had left a print job printing, and when I went into my home office to check on the printer, it had stopped after printing only 10 sets of the transfers, which I printed on the A-Sub 8.5” x 14” legal size sublimation paper. There was a message on the printer screen saying to refill the black ink. I refilled all of the tanks since they all had just about the same amount of inks in them. It’s a smart printer to give the opportunity to refill them all. Then I was able to complete the print job. So I have woken up just after midnight and added this comment. Thanks for doing this process for those who may not know yet have had to refill their EcoTank inks yet. You clearly explained the process, and they should be able to do it with no problem at all. Going to watch your next video now, which is SETTING UP AND USING A PROCOLORED DTF PRINTER. Have a blessed day in the Lord. 🌹🌹🌹

What a coincidence that you just refilled yours:) It's such a wonderful blessing that you and your sisters are all survivors and are able to get together like you do! What a powerful testimony!!!

What is this kind of tip on the bottle called? I'm trying to make sure I'm buying the right thing.

Here is a link to the ink set that has the EcoTank ready tips. After using the bottles, you can keep them and buy the regular bottles next time and pour that ink into these bottles. The ink in the regular bottles is less expensive. amzn.to/41DvG2t

I bought 2 sets when I bought mine I haven’t even touched the second set yet! I use a different brand of ink but I love my Epson too 🎉🎉🎉

IKR! They last forever, which I really love about sublimation. Thanks for watching.

Do you ever give out your printer set up? I'm having issues with my Epson 15000 after a reset and I cannot get my colors back vibrantly.

Mine is just set on the defaults. On another printer, I downloaded drivers that supposedly allowed you to do more, but I could never get it to look was good as just the default settings on it when I first used it. But I do use presentation matte paper setting and high quality printing.

Thanks for sharing. The first time I guess I didn’t know what I was doing either! 😊

The last hiipoo sublimation ink would not transfer on anything! I'm now having to figure out how to drain the tanks so I can replace it with another brand. Won't buy hiipoo again. When I printed the first design I knew something was wrong. The printout was absolutely brilliant in color.

@MakingwithMarilyn 10 ай бұрын

Hiipoo does sell regular (non-sublimation) ink. It kinda sounds like that may be what you received since it won't transfer and it was brilliant in color on the printout. That doesn't sound like sublimation ink. Having to drain the tanks will definitely take some time. I'm so sorry you had to go through such a bad experience.

How long does the ink typically last before refill?

@MakingwithMarilyn 2 ай бұрын

It will depend on how often you print, but I can tell you that using an Ecotank printer over a cartridge printer has been a HUGE difference. For me, I go several months before needing to add more ink.
