Hello Changavar, welcome to the forum. I switched to a new computer last year and am having the same problem.. all my bookmarks are gone.

Sublimation requires special ink, paper, and 100% polyester white shirts.

yeah thats what i hate about PC, i have to switch to MAC in a few month, when i had some $ to spend

im aware of that. the sub print is only on 100% polyester and there is a polyesters which feels like a soft cotton

i did worked with DTG printers (brother gt-541) and silk screen, laser cut, automatic rhinestone machine,plotter, roland sp300 print&cut,... for many years !

i lost 2years ago when my partner took my money .... (long story)

any way im starting from zero with a different partner and trying to get some info about what is the best large size printer for production and what is the best release paper,...
i already posted a thread and hopefully i get some good advice from experienced ppl here.

I don't know about large printers. I have an epson workforce 1100 which prints up to 11" wide. Plenty big enough for me. My biggest press is only 15" x 15".

I have recently discovered some really good sub paper that releases most of the ink. It is from a company called Havir Americas. They just recently opened a USA office in Miami, Florida. You can email them for more information about their paper at sublimation[USER=97915]@HA[/USER]viramericas.com. They have sheets and rolls.

thank you so much for the info.
my partner has a big automatic heat press 1mx1m, from china and works really good.it has a oil pomp rather than air compressor (originally was air compressor and we told them to change it to oil comp.)
we have a plotter, 5 laser machine, mimaki (cant remember the model but it has a white ink and its eco sol. ink) for printing on flex (silver) from germany.

i will e-mail Havir for sure.
thanx
