TWO Ways to use EasySubli with an EcoTank to Sublimate on Cotton

If you're looking to learn about how to use Siser EasySubli with and Epson EcoTank printer that's been converted for sublimation, then you've come to the right place!
When you start your sublimation journey, you're bound to find out that there are some extra steps you need to take to sublimate on 100% cotton shirts (or sublimate on colored/dark shirts). Sublimation ink doesn't bind to cotton - it needs a poly material to bind to, which is why it doesn't work for cotton shirts. Sublimation doesn't work on dark/colored shirts because sublimation ink doesn't have a white base in it. So, if you're wanting to sublimate on a cotton shirt OR a dark shirt, you need a medium in between. One of the materials that you can use to sublimate on a cotton shirt is Siser EasySubli.
However, as we show in this video, it's not as easy as just printing on EasySubli and following the usual steps. Siser EasySubli was made for Sawgrass Sublimation Printers (and even more particular, sawgrass printers with the EasySubli ink installed in them), so there are quite a few things you need to know to successfully use Siser EasySubli ink with an Epson EcoTank printer.
We cover everything you need to know about that in this video! Links to all materials are below.
Time and Temperature: 350 degrees for 45 seconds
Tacking blank EasySubli first: 310 for 15 seconds.

[@Reborn627]

What I great video!! Thank you for showing both methods, really great info here! We did run into one issue using the EasySubli and the Epson printer. We were unable to get the sheet to feed into the printer correctly. After 7 attempts I decided to try to help the paper feed. This worked, both times I tried, but the sheet didn't feed straight and the ink streaked a bit. We ended up deciding that the EasySubli was more trouble than it was worth, but this video may change that. I really like the idea of sublimating onto the EasySubli sheet, this could minimize a number of the problems we ran into. Anyway, thanks again!!

[@JustMightDIY]

Thanks for watching! We’re so glad this video is helpful. Happy sublimating!!

[@Villamorada]

For the second method I used sticker paper, more pressure and it was bomb. also my printer wouldn't feed on the easy subli. So you guys giving option 2 was a life saver thank you !!!!

I thought I tried every print setting and settled on Premium Matte, standard res. Most of the time it was fine, but when there was lots of black in the image, it bled into other colors. Colors were vibrant though. Glossy photo/standard was ultimately the setting that solved the bleed problem, which is what you said in the vid, I think. So thank you.

[@JustMightDIY]

😉

[@joeabell]

@@JustMightDIY How about using the markers in the 'small area' then use a Circuit (or other) teenie tiny heat press 'iron" to that area. Less chance of lifting other original design areas. Might work. OR ... maybe PRE-adjust the print to A-Sub paper bleed to a fraction of a size larger if that impossible... to over cover the already pressed Easy Subli.

[@djiq4644]

Great video! You guys actually do have the best step by step video explaining this process. I learned alot and now I’m ready. Thank you. Although, I just ordered my ecotank ET 15000 as well so I’m curious. Isn’t there a slow print setting to allow more time to dry while printing for the less likelihood of those pizza marks? Also anything i should know about the Ecotank 15000 before I start using it for sublimation?

[@JustMightDIY]

Thank you! Doing this video we went through all of the settings we could find on both the printer side and computer to slow it down for drying before it got to the pizza wheels. We even left the lid open while printing. What we showed after dozens of tries and lots of wasted EasySubli is the best we could get. The problem is EasySubli does not absorb the ink like normal sub paper. This is why we put it under some heat after printing. As for the printer, kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZelqpekZr2Dl6M It's been great for a year+. This was our set up of it, nothing done off camera. Make sure and have in use once a week to keep ink from congealing. Hope this answered everything and happy crafting!

[@lynnebizlyne436]

I truly enjoy your tutorials. I tried the easy Subli as well and went through 10 sheets testing and cleaned my printer 3 times during the process and the ‘pizza wheels’ still showed up so I’m not a fan of the easy Subli. It’s too expensive to use to have the images ‘marred’ every time. I heard if you own a Sawgrass printer it works better but that’s too expensive of a ‘fix’ for the issue as a small crafter right now. I did not try the second method you demonstrated as I ran out of the Easy Subli but I wish I had seen this first. 👍❤️

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey there! Yeah A the pizza wheels are frustrating when you try to print directly. You can purchase it by the sheet if you want to try a bit more with the second method. Links on where to purchase are in the description!

[@EdgardoSchmitz]

I would think that to avoid border misalignment... maybe you could ofset the cut shape a tiny bit smaller. Great video!

[@JustMightDIY]

Thanks for that, next we need to use this process we will try that! Thanks for watching!

[@SimplybeingR]

Or possibly make an offset for the easy subli so the cut image fits into it...just thinking of ways to do this as I am in the midst of using this and having trouble...wasting time and materials

[@crcdesign9886]

I noticed you pressed it for 45 sec in the first method. When I bought it from US cutter they sent instructions for you to only press it for 15 secs. Unfortunately It fell off the shirt by the time my daughter and I got to the supermarket. Thank you!

Thanks for watching, hopefully the longer press will keep the design longer. We haven't had any problems with ours yet!

[@AliciaEastLyme]

I think the reason you are having to let it dry so long is the premium matte setting. it puts on so much ink with that setting and i haven't noticed any difference than with bright white paper setting.

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey! Thanks so much for your comment. We actually tried every print option and quality setting combination and came up with very similar results with the lack of ink drying. 😉

Can you cut an image larger than what the cricut will allow? wasn't for sure if there was a work around for that. I have an Explore Air 2? Thank you

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey! Thanks for your question. If you want it to be larger than what the Cricut will allow, you will need to do method #2. For that, you will have to print from a different program and just cut the outline on the Cricut. Hope this helps.

[@krystalnarbaez4711]

On the second method the rough side of the east subli goes facing up or down when you go to cut it?

Hey! Rough side up. Hope this helps!

[@TemaIgnite]

hi, quick question. Your heat press is covered with teflon right? why do you do that and how has it affected your prints?

[@JustMightDIY]

Hello! Yes - that’s Teflon. We do that to protect the press in case we forget to cover something effectively. It doesn’t affect any of our prints or presses. Hope this helps!

ok on second step what side is up and what side is down rough up smooth down? also i did setting as stated my subli melts

[@JustMightDIY]

Took a minute to find the answer, rough side up! If the subli is melting we would double check the press your using is heating up accurately. Excess heat is about the only reason for that result. Hope this helps!

Honest personal opinion?! What is better EasySubly or EasyColor Siser for making T-shirts... I have both Epson sublimation printer (I have to use 2 step for it) and regular inkjet Epson printer... Because you have experience, what is better results from this two paper?

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey there. Better is so subjective that it’s hard to say. EasyColor is easier to do overall, though.

[@melissalackey9507]

When using the easysubli how would yall make a larger design than what design space allows you ? Like 11” wide design or bigger

[@JustMightDIY]

They make large type EasySubli. Like 20 inches by 50 yards. And have a wide format printer capable of handling it. Piecing it together would have seams and not look quality.

Have you tried using the ET2800 or like for printing on the Siser EasySubli? If so, do you have a KZbin video?

I just started sublimation and i'm finding kids shirts colored and high poly count are hard to find. I took the sublimation plunge because I really hated weeding HTV and I was never really confident that it would stick forever. So my question is...since this is an htv....are you able to pick at the edges and see the edge ( like in his glitter htv shirt)

[@JustMightDIY]

It is an extremely thin htv. There's obviously going to be an edge to pick at but it is so thin and adheres strongly. You would be super hard pressed to have it come up in the edges if it's pressed correctly. One of our future videos is DTF applied to cotton or color shirts.

I have an Epson F170, would I just need to buy the Easy Subli Mask? Does the mask come with 2 parts? I'm a little confused on the seemingly 3 parts but only showing one box.

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey! You’d need the EasySubli to actually sublimate on. The mask is basically a transfer tape. Hope this helps!

[@bogdanc.4233]

Hello. Sublimation paper from TexPrint DT Light (XP) will work well with EasySubli? Thanks!

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey! We haven’t tried that specific paper with EasySubli, but we have used it before on other projects. It should work well for this based on our other experience!

[@tashanet6497]

What setting to I print on subli with my epson if using word instead of design space? Also, can you do step two on the white shirt?

[@JustMightDIY]

We haven't worked out of word. Don't know that setting but somewhere in the medium level of print quality. Either process should work on most fabrics and colors. How this helps! Thanks for watching!

Hi, where did you get you lovely little printer cabinet? That is so adorable.

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey there! We didn't buy the printer cabinet- we made it using a bottom cabinet from Lowes! Here’s the video that shows the build: How to Make a Faux Card Catalog Cabinet | Sublimation Printer Cabinet kzbin.info/www/bejne/d3mskpR_h9Olqa8

yesterday for me 23/12/23, I used my easy subli for the first time. I was told NOT to mirror the easy subli, so I print out and cut the offset, then set out to cut the sublimated image, Portrait, but when I cut the offset. it was also in portrait, BUT the sublimation image printed horizontal :( so it did not line up on the easy subli, (wasted sheet of easy subli) 🥲🥲my question is. If you do not mirror the easy subli, but mirror the sublimation image, how can this line up?? I am still a sublimation newbie here. thank you.

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey! Your sublimation image will need to be placed face down on top of your easysubli in order to be transferred, so the sublimation image needs to be mirrored. Hope this helps!

[@tashanet6497]

So wait, on the second shirt, when you did easysubli with the sublimation. Did you do print then cut or just cut option with the easysubli paper, And you just put the paper on cutting mat and put it in the cricut?

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey! Thanks for your question. We just cut the shape out of the EasySubli using the Cricut. It was not a Print Then Cut Hope this helps!!

[@tashanet6497]

@@JustMightDIY Got it, thanks.

[@JenLapent]

Why did you use 2 layers on the blue? I made a black shirt the other day and just used the easy sub and it was fine. Just curious.

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey! We’re not using two layers - it’s just a different method of using EasySubli (if printing directly onto it doesn’t work with your printer). Hope this helps!

[@reijeoh]

Hi! Do you have the link for your specific heat transfer tape?

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey! All of the materials we used are linked in the description. 😄

[@jen.josa1]

How does it hold after washes? Are the colors still as vibrant?

[@JustMightDIY]

Hello! Yes - the colors still look good after a few washes!

[@wegetthingsdone5867]

Great video! Do you have to use the mask?

[@JustMightDIY]

Thanks! We’re glad you like to! We prefer to use the mask when there are small edges that can curl under. Learned from experience with that one!

[@wegetthingsdone5867]

@@JustMightDIY ahhh that makes sense! I ordered some sheets to pick up from Joann’s tomorrow. 🤓

[@samanthawillis3912]

Can you use this method on 65/35 blends or does it just work on 100% cotton?

[@JustMightDIY]

Hi there and thanks for your question! You can use EasySubli on that as well. 😊

[@townmama]

I have et 2720 and the easysubli won't feed in. Very frustrating because sometimes it will. Any suggestions?

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey! If you’re having trouble with thr printer feeding, we’d recommend trying the second option instead. Hope this helps!

[@tonymankilla]

whats the difference between the easy subli paper you used for the first print and the second print?

[@JustMightDIY]

The easy subli is the same, the method we're different. One has printed directly on the easy subli and one printed on regular sublimation paper and transferred to easy subli. Hope this helps, thanks for watching

[@dorisstott4310]

i have individual letters , im wanting to put on a black sweat shirt , 100% polyester , what will i need to do . i printed it off on a sub paper, did i miss a step yall showed , i look at so many videos . please help !!!!!!

[@JustMightDIY]

Hi! Go back and watch method 2. You need to cut the EasySubli to the right shape and adhere it to the shirt before sublimating.

[@coupiedoll]

Is there any product that doesn't feel like vinyl when putting on cotton or dark fabric?

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey! Not that we’ve tried yet. They all sit on top of the fabric to some degree.

[@deborahjames7984]

How does the tshirt feel after this process? Is it soft around the design?

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey! It feels like a very thin vinyl on the shirt.

[@lesliegriffith7000]

Did you mirror the easysubli on the 2nd method?

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey! For method #2, only mirror your image printout (for the sublimation paper) - not the shape on the EasySubli.

[@DJV0ICE]

i have a random question i might have missed it but i was wondering how do you set the paper size in the printer ? do you set it as 8.5 x 11 or the the bigger size because i know there size is kind of odd lol thank you

[@JustMightDIY]

Hey! Thanks for watching. 😄 We just left the paper size at 8.5x11 and didn’t have any issues.
