@jootb Жыл бұрын
My husband has been in the print shop business 15 plus years. His company has been in business for over 75 years. And I asked him why does black ink stay on fabric better? Black ink, particularly in the context of printing or writing on fabric, often appears to stay on fabric better due to a combination of factors: 1. Black ink usually contains a higher concentration of pigments compared to other colors. Pigments are the color particles suspended in the ink. A higher pigment concentration means that more pigment particles are deposited on the fabric, leading to a more intense and longer-lasting color. 2. : Black is an inherently dark and opaque color. It covers the underlying fabric more effectively, which can help hide the color of the fabric itself and any patterns or textures that might be present. This can give the impression that the black ink is "staying on" the fabric better. 3. : Black absorbs a wide spectrum of light, including ultraviolet (UV) light. UV light can degrade pigments and dyes over time, leading to fading. Since black absorbs a broad range of light, it is less susceptible to UV-related fading, making it appear more stable and long-lasting. 4. : The contrast between black ink and most fabric colors is quite high. This contrast makes the black ink appear more visually prominent and less affected by any fading or wear that might occur over time. 5. : Our eyes are more forgiving when it comes to imperfections in dark colors. Fading, smudging, or slight changes in shade are less noticeable in black ink compared to lighter or more vibrant colors. It's important to note that the perceived "better staying" of black ink on fabric is partly due to human perception and the characteristics of the color black. Other colors might exhibit similar longevity if they have high pigment concentration, opacity, and resistance to fading. However, the longevity of any ink or dye on fabric is also influenced by factors such as the quality of the ink, the fabric's material and preparation, the printing or dyeing method used, exposure to light and environmental conditions, and how well the fabric is cared for (washing, ironing, etc.).

The double cure/powder with a second press works amazing with sublimation ink. I think most of this is based on the inkjet ink being used. The colored ink with inkjet inks are dye-based whereas the black is pigment based. Dye-based are impacted by water where as pigment based ink isn’t. The reason sublimation ink doesn’t fade/washout with the dtf hack is because the dtf powder is a poly based powder that’s curing and adhering to the shirt for the sublimation ink.

I caught a glimpse of a video of a guy doing the dtf hack and now I can't find it for the life of me. The twist is that he used a common product and says that the dtf works better with this product. He did the hack and mentioned Delonda but pressed in the powder, cured and then coated and cured again. He then sprayed the dtf film after curing with spray starch and also added some to the shirt and then pressed. He said that it was soft and washed perfectly with no loss of colors. I wanted to try this but I could not find the video again. I may need to try this and do the wash test for myself.

I looked on Canon's website and this printer model appears to have pigment ink for the black. I believe the color cartridge is the water based dye ink. I think that is why your black washed so well. I have 2 Canon printers and one of them has both a pigment black and dye black and my photo pro has all dye inks. The pigment black is intended to be used in printing documents to keep a nice crisp black for text. My photo pro printer is not intended for printing documents (even though you could) so it does not have the pigment black. I think the pigment has a tendency to clog worse than the water based dyes though, so I have never bought a full pigment printer. Thanks for all your testing! I do that myself and it gets costly and time consuming!

Hey there, great video! I don't know if it's been mentioned, or if you have possibly given it a previous whirl, but I would give adding in "Bubble Jet Set" a try if you haven't already. You treat your fabric with it prior to printing, and it locks in the colors and greatly improves the wash fastness of inkjet inks. It's generally used to print directly onto fabrics using an inkjet. But, I am thinking it would provide your fabric with the improved wash fastness still, while just skipping printing directly to the fabric, and replacing it with heat pressing your printed transfer. I am curious if the applied heat and pressure during press will somehow degrade the effect the bubble jet set has on the fabric and inks, but, I don't think so! :)

Love the video! But I think using the glossy was the problem. Glossy paper needs LESS ink because it does not “soak” in to the paper it rests on the top.

I would still with cotton t-shirts either use clear htv or use a poly spray then use your method. The transfer powder with inkjet ink is absorbing into the powder vs transferring on top of the powder if that sounds right. So either way inkjet you're going to lose color when washing unless top and bottom is is sealing in the ink.

@DesignBundles - higher "Print Quality" or DPI might help as the print area would be more saturated (less white space between the dots). Mathematically, 600 vs 300 (default) dpi is 4X more ink (in the same space). 1200 vs 300 DPI is 16X. If the wash issue is "loss of dots or pigment" and not all "fading," this might help. Less red pigment (more white ratio) becomes pink, etc... Just a thought.

Mine was in a different spot than yours. And then I tried it on another shirt and the same thing happened again in another area where I guess it wasn't getting even pressure. A different time when I was making another shirt, I was hovering the easy press over the film, it curled up on the edge but I didn't notice it the first time and it accidentally touched my easy press and got some of the powder solidified on the press. I was able to wipe it off while it was still hot with a large wad of paper towel. I did go ahead and press the shirt to see what would happen and the color didn't show up in that area.

To treat the first print as a priming or base coat and then placing a fresh print over it. Also I'm a bit surprised that there isn't a go to protective vinyl or spray designed for this purpose. I realize that a method like this would treble the cost of materials but if it's the quality of the end product that counts then surely it's worth it?

my guess why black ink did hold up better is because, most inkjet printers black is actually pigment ink, while rest is dye inks, so if you had all pigment inkjet [probably professional photo printer] then you would have a greater success with colours holding ;) it's just my theory though. So when you said a solid colour that is NOT black would stay i don't think it would be the case, simply because that would use the dye based inks in printers vs black pigment ink. Again just my theory, after researching printers for last 2 months in search for a sticker printer XD

I'm having trouble printing on the DTF film with my inkjet printer. The image prints fine on a plain sheet of copy paper but when I print the same image on the DTF film it almost looks vintage because the ink only adheres to the film in certain spots of the image.

Be sure it’s printing on the correct side. On glossy DTF film the print side is more of a matte finish for ink to absorb and adhere to.

Help needed please. I am waiting for the Epson which I will use for sublimation printing. Meanwhile, as my daughter only uses pure cotton Tshirts for my Grandkids, I thought I'd try this with my Epson ET2750 standard inkjet. Its a great idea! Problem is, the printer wont print on the DTF film. I've solved the feeding problem. The printer starts to print. Does a minute amount then just stops. There's no error message. The LCD just flicks back to the home screen. The same project prints perfectly on office paper. Waiting waiting waiting for info from Epson but at my age you just don't know how much time you have left😊 . Thanks so much

Love your videos.. Quick question, I seen the difference with colored images pressed on the shirts but what would you recommend on pressing designs on shirts would it be DTF or Sublimation or another method that the images would stay and look vibrant even after washing. Thank you..

Hello Crystal, I just watched your KZbin video today on the DTF inkjet sublimation and I had noticed that you was using cotton T-shirts. I’m just wondering if it would work better on 100% polyester. Cause I’ve been hearing that when you do sublimation on fabric that is 100% polyester it works better than 100% cotton. Something about the polyester holds the colors a lot better for whatever reason. So, if you do another video again do the same steps like you did in this video and see what kind of results you get the next time. Love your videos you put out. Thanks

I know this is late but could you try a light/white design on a dark T-shirt with the inkjet? Black looks great but I wonder if the opposite would be the same!

Hello my name is Tim Davis and i do T-Shirts also have you tried putting a piece of butcher paper or parchment paper inside the shirt to keep the design from bleeding through.

I think it was the setting of the printer when you choose auto the color are more vibrant

You could try a higher ink setting instead of normal maybe one higher

Just had this idea pop in my head for some reason. What if you spray it with a water guard protectant and let it set, then put it in the washer. In my mind it would protect the colors from fading in the washing machine. Just an idea I'v never done sublimation which is why i'm watching this very informative video on using an ink jet printer good thing for me is you are using the same exact printer i have yah!!!

I know this video is old now but I was wondering if you can use either dtf or normal heat transfer vinyl on fully cured epoxy resin or a wooden box?
