How about showing the part before all this. The part where you do the print setup on the computer, what program/process the send to the printer. What are the printer parameters.

[@lupusk9productions]

Probably didn't cause printers have been out for multiple decades.

[@averagedudeusa9722]

You need photoshop to adjust the size of the image and colors, tones etc. Then for printing you need to talk to the ink company about the specs. If this guy told you what he does it probably would not work for you. Here is what I do: I use photoshop for image adjustments, Epson eco tank printer using sublimation ink that I buy online. Then the ink company gives me a file to put in my computer called an "ICC profile." The ICC profile allows the ink to work with the printer. Different printers have their own unique ICC profile file. It sounds complex, but after you do it twice it becomes easy. I hope that helps.

​@@averagedudeusa9722Thanks for the help!! Can you tell us which kind of paper you have used for printing?

[@averagedudeusa9722]

@@CloudR-x1p no problem. glad to help. I use TexPrint R. You can find it online at places like coastal sublimation and heat press nation. Do keep in mind that different printers print better on certain brans of paper, but I have never had issues using this brand. This paper brand also works great with sawgrass printers.

[@iliyanslavov1726]

Can you make a video how your printer is printing for how long time is making a picture and how you are choosing the pictures thank you

[@joshuapoe]

Where do you get the frames from?

[@Zivrulez1]

Is the VEVOR heat press good enough for high quality prints? Also, are you not concerned at al about the vapor coming out from the sublimation process? Some say it might be toxic which deter me from doing it at home

[@user-vx2wl9qy5t]

Which printer do you use ?

[@yyccarportraits]

I've had a few prints where the heat tape left a spot on the print that the image didn't transfer. So basically there's a slight white spot where the heat tape was. I'm wondering if I pressed the heat tape down too well, and maybe when it expanded it made a slight gap in that spot. I notice you kinda put the heat tape on without really pressing it down too much. Have you had that happen? Just a little blank spot on the print where the tape was..

[@josesaavedra7424]

Sir where do i buy the frame ?

[@glenbaptiste5943]

Greetings from Indonesia! Your videos are really nice, i just started my own alumumium poster business! I just had experienced my result is way more warm (dark) tham the original picture, do you habe amy suggestion to fix it? Or should i always increase the contrast for every picture?

Great videos man. Wanting to get a small hobby press so I can print the photos that I take that I like. Is there anything in particular you need in a heat press or will just about any work for making aluminum prints?

as long as its a flat clamshell press, any small one should work. I like my Vevor 16x20" press

What is the thickness of that sheet?

[@rushdecatur]

1.15mm

[@timtomnec]

your "heat tape" is not heat tape, that would be for gutters/pipes to keep them from freezing, what you have is thermal conductive tape. the foam tap is not foam tap, that would be for actual foam, instead you used a double sided tape with foam. small words big difference, This is why people look at you strange when you try to pick stuff up at a brick and mortar store.
