[@Dot360PrintingTutorial]

Hi PTC, Sublimation is really quite tricky and challenging. There's a lot of factor. First, better to Calibrate your printer settings. I have a tutorial as well about this. After this make sure you artwork is in CMYK format. You can also try to change the black to CMYK(30,30,30,100) respectively.
