Discuss the various aspects of heat press technology. Transfer paper, inks, plastisol transfers, vinyl cutters, printers, commercial usage, durability, suppliers, etc.
The R320 looks nice. Also does the CD printing, that's a nice extra for some folks.
It uses dye ink, so switch it over to pigment, maybe a nice heat transfer pigment ink that can take the high heat, and you'll be in business. Give the printer a good cleaning prior to switching the ink.
I have just been caught out by not doing enough research!!
I just bought an Epson R285 with continuous ink system (bulk) - but this is dye based ink.
You need to buy an Epson with Dura Bright Ultra inks suchn as the D68, C64 C66 D88 - or if you feel flush an Epson 1800 (A3).
I'm lucky as I will keep the 285 for my art photos but you should really be concentrating on buying an Epson Durabright inked unit and then sticking with Epson ink until you get a good reccomendation from guys on this site.
Also, here is something from the net. I have not done or used this method, it is just something I found out there that may or may not be useful. I'd ask the folks here first, who have flushed and unclogged their printers personally. I have no issues with my c88+, but I am aware others do have issues with their printers. Here you go:FLUSH DRIED INK FROM YOUR EPSON PRINT HEADS
A note on Espon durabrite inks. Some folks experience color shifting. Please research the forum for Durabrite ink color shifting and then on heat transfer pigment ink. Since you have the chance to learn about both of these from the start, you can decide up front if you want to go with one or the other, rather than possibly changing later on again.
I don't have any color shifting with durabrite, but quite a few folks do. They don't have any issues with the heat transfer pigments tho. Just thought I'd mention it. Best regards.
