Default Can i use dyesub ink on transfer paper

I have ran out for ink in my epson dx6000 and still need to do 4 more t-shirts on dark and light transfer paper, is it possible to use my d88 that has dyesub ink in to finish off these t-shirts?
Any help would be great.

I have used dye sub ink on transfer paper with great success. I used dye sub ink and transfer paper on 100% cotton and it has held up through several trips through the laundry(a years worth). I spoke to a rep for the ink and they said the trnsfer paper had some polyester in it and the ink attached to it. This allowed it to work on the cotton tee. I did this experiment on a white tee and a light yellow tee. I hope this helps. ....... JB

JB,

Which type of transfer paper did you use? I ask because I know different transfer papers have different chemicals on them. So, the dye sub ink might react differently from one paper to the next. This is good information to have. Thanks.

Mark
