Question Pigment ink vs Pigmented Sublimation Ink

Forgive me if this is a stupid question..
Is there any difference between Pigment ink and Pigmented Sublimation Ink???
I saw in a store the Pigmented Sublimation Ink more expensive and I was confused.

Sorry for my bad english.

Best Regards,
Paula

Default Re: Pigment ink vs Pigmented Sublimation Ink

I don't think sublimation ink is pigmented. There is pigment ink, then there is sublimation ink.

Sublimation ink is used strictly for polyester content (preferably 100%) in light colors only.

Pigment ink can be used with transfer paper on both light and dark cotton or poly/cotten garments.
