Siser EasySubli

[@teacheriantha1457]

does the ink have to be easy subli or can it be the current Sublimation ink we have?

[@toxicvinyl8404]

What would cause it not to release from the carrier and not tack to the mask sheet after sheet is doing this and beginning to get costly ?

[@private8302ee]

Thanks, if u haven't got a press but a easy press. Do I have to wait 2 hours for the ink to dry a little? Please what can i do thanks

[@Lomack.792]

I have the SG800, will I be able to use the inks that came with my printer for the EasySubli paper? Or do I need to ONLY use the Siser ink?

[@uscuttervideos]

For optimal results, EasySubli ink is recommended for use with EasySubli HTV. Sublijet-HD ink can be used with EasySubli. The VPM settings will need to be tweaked as the Sublijet HD VPM tends to lay down a lot of ink which can result in over saturation of the HTV and provide less than ideal prints. The Siser edition VPM (EasySubli VPM) can also be used with the Sublijet-HD inks but again the prints created may result in the HTV being over saturation with ink and produce less than ideal results. In short, you can use your existing sublimation inks with EasySubli vinyl but your results might not be as good compared to EasySubli inks, which were designed to exactly match the vinyl.

Nice look forward to try that as I build my channel and I learn more

[@buddysmith7080]

Why did you change the temp from 310 to 340? Is it because you used the mask? Can you re-use the mask?

[@uscuttervideos]

It is not recommended to re-use the mask because there may be residual ink from the last design that you do not want to ghost on your new design. The temperature was increased from 310 to 340 for the portable heat press which (depending on the user) may provide less pressure than a large heat press with a levered handle.

Does This Feel Like Patch On T-shirts Or It Has No Feel (Part Of The Fabric Like Sublimation, Waterbase Etc)???

[@uscuttervideos]

EasySubli vinyl is applied on top of the garment so it is not part of the fabric and is indeed a patch. EasySubli inks, however are true sublimation inks and can be used on any polymer or polyester surface to bond directly with the polymers.

When i try to print the image with an Epson-L3160 (using sublimation ink of course) all my prints come out speckled and low resolution. I think this is because the surface of the easy-subli is quite course and bumpy. How did you get a sharp image printed on it?

[@malmo54]

The Easy subli is still wet after printing with sublimation printer.It's very hard to cut the vinyl without to smudge the motiv.Have you any idea to fix the problem?

[@uscuttervideos]

You need to place the EasySubli vinyl under an open heat press for a few minutes to allow the ink to dry before applying to the garment.

[@edgardmgh]

USCutter Videos is that white ink around the picture?

[@uscuttervideos]

@@edgardmgh No, the printer does not have white ink, only Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black (CMYK). The EasySubli vinyl is white so you would not lay down any ink in areas that you want to show up as white.

[@BryanMichaelll]

My transfer mask never peals that's easy. I doesnt transfer at all. I let sit under head press for 1 min, then use my camero to cut. Weed and place transfer mash on and squeegee. Nothing happens after my vinly is still on the carrier. Any help or suggestions

[@uscuttervideos]

Problems with the mask not picking up easily may be caused by too much ink on the vinyl. Some users have mentioned that they get better mask peel results by putting the mask in the freezer prior to use.

[@malmo54]

Can you only just contour cut the motiv in EasySubli,heat press it on the garment and then heat press the mirrored motiv printed on sublimation paper direct on EasySubli?

[@uscuttervideos]

I think you are asking if it is possible to cut out a design from the EasySubli vinyl without printing on to it and then print out a matching design on sublimation paper and then apply the sublimation paper to the EasySubli vinyl which has been tacked onto the garment. The answer is yes, you could do this, but why would you want to? (since you can already print onto the EasySubli vinyl directly)

[@malmo54]

@@uscuttervideos Just because I haven't a Cricut or Silhouette machine to contour cut the motiv.I have instead a plotter så is easy for me to contour cut the design from EasySubli without printing on it and then print the sublimation paper on EasySubli.

[@uscuttervideos]

@@malmo54 Yes, you could cut the vinyl and transfer paper separately and then align them by hand as long as you have some means to see the correct alignment of the transfer paper to the vinyl. This would work for small runs, but in a production environment you would be better off to get a contour cut capable machine.

[@uscuttervideos]

It will come down to the inks you use, but since we do not carry cosmos inks we have no way to test this for you. In terms of a wider cutter, you should be looking at a PrismCut P20 or even a P28 which will give you much wider cutting capability and will work with EasySubli vinyls and many other materials. www.uscutter.com/P28-PrismCut-Vinyl-Cutter-with-WiFi-Design-Cut-Software

Hello I have 3 questions hope you to help me with: I wonder if i can use siser easysubli inks for epson l805 ?? And if so can i use siser easysubli vinyl along with them to sublimate on cotton and dark shirts?? Also can use these inks to sublimate on mugs??

[@uscuttervideos]

Here are answers to your three questions: 1) EasySubli inks come in cartridges that fit into Sawgrass SG400 and SG800 printers, so they will not fit into an Epson I805. 2) Yes, EasySubli vinyl can be applied to cotton and dark shirts. 3) Yes, You can use EasySubli inks to sublimate onto mugs and other surfaces that are polymer coated.

[@lorikasprowicz5710]

I have a question after you press the design onto the shirt what does it feel like? Does it feel like vinyl or like a regular shirt??

[@uscuttervideos]

The EasySibli vinyl will feel different from the shirt since it is layered on top of the shirt. EasySubli feel is soft, but it unique from the feel of the shirt.

[@Marc-th9xw]

I got some samples of this and didn't have good results. I just have generic sublimation inks and I use Sawgrass Powerdriver, which is fine for mugs and glass. I found the inks bleed quite badly on the paper, especially the black, the designs were very dark too. My cutlines were pretty bad even after a day setting them up and accurate in the software. I guess my old silhoutte 1 has too much movement down the page. I found the mask quite useless for picking up the designs especially small pieces. I liked the hand of it though, it would be close to a flock vinyl used for print/cut. Therefore for me to use it, I'd probably have to change my inksets out. Get a newer cutter. At over £2 per sheet and it actually being more difficult to setup cutlines in Silhouette around a jpeg than using AI for print/cut I don't think it's for me. I'm not slating the product, just saying you probably need to meet all the right conditions to get the results you see advertised.

[@uscuttervideos]

It is important to note that EasySubli vinyl provides best results when used with EasySubli inks. It is also important to enable the Siser edition of the Sawgrass Virtuoso Print Manager which is controlling the specific ink density needed for EasySubli to avoid the bleed that you are seeing. Using the manufacturer's recommended companion products and recommended settings yields excellent results. The more variables you start to add, the more results become unpredictable and at over £2 per sheet it gets costly to experiment.

[@Marc-th9xw]

@@uscuttervideos Yes exactly. Can you then use the easy subli inks for mugs and glass? I have two Ricohs A4/A3. Just to have one dedicated for just this might be a push. Good to know in VPM there's a Siser setting.

[@uscuttervideos]

@@Marc-th9xw Yes, you can use EasySubli ink to sublimate onto mugs, ceramic tiles etc. We have found that low cost Greenstar transfer paper works great with EasySubli inks. You can find Greenstar paper here: www.uscutter.com/GreenStar-Sublimation-Paper

[@charliesamples6856]

Great to know that Siser has made sublimation easier. I have noticed that the only printer used is the Sawgrass printer, will other printers (namely Cannon) be able to use the EasySuubli print sheets?

EasySubli is designed to work with EasySubli ink on a Sawgrass SG400 printer. It is not possible to use just any printer or any ink with this material. You can buy a kit with EasySubli Ink and a Sawgrass SG400 sublimation printer here: www.uscutter.com/EasySubli

[@GodKing666]

...is there any other reason Sublimation is needed, than vibrant colors? Cause Jet Paper has done me well.

[@uscuttervideos]

Color, texture/hand, matte vs. gloss, washfastness, ease of weeding etc. are all possible things to consider for any appliqué. Sublimation in particular makes a very strong bond between the inks and the polymer material it is sublimated to. Vibrant colors and strength of the bond make sublimation an important tool.

[@GodKing666]

@@uscuttervideos ...okay. So do I only need to cut the image with Subli? I thought I'd be able to print fades, and have no definitive lines. I'm assuming because of the process needed to use Sublimation dyes on Cottons and Dark colors, there's still that need for a white base? Yes?

[@uscuttervideos]

@@GodKing666 You need to contour cut the EasySubli vinyl, but there is no need to contour cut transfer paper when sublimating onto hard surfaces like ceramic tiles. You should be able to have fades (also known as feathered edges) when using EasySubli inks with Greenstar transfer paper as only the inks and not the paper will be transferred to the ceramic tile, mug, or other white based surface that contains polymers.

[@tonydelaney9417]

Great video and very intriguing product! I know EasySubli is 'designed' to work with EasySubli ink on the Sawgrass printer, but would it work on other sublimation ink/printer combos (theoretically)?

[@uscuttervideos]

Not having tested it with other configurations I would not be able to give a definitive answer, but let's follow your question from a theoretical perspective. The first challenge you face is getting the sheet of vinyl to feed through your printer without jamming, scratching the vinyl or smearing the ink. Given that the vinyl is 220 microns with a shiny/slippery backer which needs to get picked up by the printer feed rollers, you would need a printer that can handle thick papers and overhead transparencies. I heard that Siser spent over a year getting EasySubli vinyl to move smoothly through the Sawgrass SG400. Next you would have to consider ink density on a semi-porous surface and also possible color shift from the ink. Your sublimation temperature/time would be up to you to experiment with and define since each combination of printer and ink may produce different results. If you happen to have a printer and ink and are not worried about a possible paper jam, it might make sense for you to experiment with a few sheets of EasySubli and see what happens. Most people lean towards letting the manufacturer do all the heavy lifting so that they can follow easy steps to get consistent results, but you may lean towards a more experimental approach.

[@GluePaperScissors]

Hi vinyl cracks over time. Will this crack over time as well? I’m assuming the Inks are not infused in the garment, is that correct? Please advise thank you

[@uscuttervideos]

EasySubli vinyl is more flexible than standard vinyl (it feels much softer). I assume your question relates to wash/dry cycles for a garment decorated with EasySubli. As long as you wash/dry a garment inside out and do not subject it to high heat in the dryer, EasySubli vinyl should last a long time, possibly longer than the garment itself.

[@GluePaperScissors]

USCutter Videos one more question. If I change the ink for easy sub inks can I still use the same ink for regular prints on light color garments or do I have to change put inks?

[@uscuttervideos]

@@GluePaperScissors Sublimation inks like EasySubli ink are specific to sublimation projects and are not appropriate for regular prints. Standard inkjet printers use a different technology and different inkset (which of course cannot sublimate). You should always plan to have a separate printer for sublimation and a separate printer for regular prints.

[@aquaangelsart]

Do we not need to Mirror this for t-shirt?

[@uscuttervideos]

When printing onto EasySubli vinyl there is no need to mirror the image - print on EasySubli vinyl the way you would normally want to see the final image.

[@honorsmith8382]

Why only Sawgrass? Will this be available for other printers?

[@uscuttervideos]

Sawgrass has the correct ICC profiles and is the only printer that can use the ink, but you can still use other Sublimation inks on EasySubli. I have personally done it with Sublimation toner, and also water based sublimation inks. You will just need play around with the media settings to get the proper amount of ink to lay down.

[@JANJOHNSON59]

Do you have a video for use with a Cricut maker?

[@michaelc6553]

I don’t have a heatpress I have an iron. I heard it takes 2 hrs to cure before applying. Is this true?

[@uscuttervideos]

Normally 1-2 minutes under an open heat press OR just waiting 20-30 minutes for the ink to dry should be sufficient. I am not aware of any situation where it takes hours for the ink to dry even if a highly saturated image is being printed.

[@michaelc6553]

USCutter Videos thanks for the response. I’ve been using easy stretch which is a good product. How’s the feel compared to the stretch? Thanks

[@uscuttervideos]

@@michaelc6553 EasySubli has a lightly textured feel. It is 220 microns so you need to consider the size of the artwork to avoid the sensation of a patch on your shirt. Colors become a lot more vivid once you apply the heat while pressing onto the garment.

It took hours to cure for me smh

[@uscuttervideos]

@@Tiffany91086 Did you place the vinyl under an open heat press? Also, are you sure you have enabled the Siser edition of Virtual Print Manager, since using Sublijet-HD inks with the standard Sawgrass edition of VPM will oversaturate the vinyl with too much ink. What ink are you using to get the long curing time?

[@naturalhealthrevolution1518]

Magic question is how does it feel on shirts? Soft, like cardboard or what?

It is a patch, but it is softer and stretchier than the others products like it. This is my personal opinion, but it feels like a vinyl/felt hybrid to me. -Josh

You can use any cutter that has the ability to create a contour cut (also known as print and cut). Otherwise you would need to somehow trim the design with scissors since a full 8.5x11 sheet is sent through the printer.

Does easy subli work with uncoated ceramics?

[@uscuttervideos]

(note that we have to be careful to understand the difference between EasySubli inks, EasySubli Vinyl and EasySubli mask as each component provides a specific function) EasySubli inks, just like any sublimation ink require ceramics to have a polymer coating, since sublimation only works on polyester or polymer coated products. If you wanted to sublimate EasySubli inks to EasySubli vinyl (which is polymer coated) you could apply the EasySubli vinyl to a number of different surfaces, but applying vinyl to ceramics would be less common because vinyl is not dishwasher safe.
