The Difference Between Skyimage Sublimation Ink and Other Type Inks

Hello, good afternoon, my dear friends. The seven days National holiday is over, then I should work carefully. So, let enter today's topic, during sublimation industrial, I believe you must know sublimation ink. Comparing with sublimation transfer ink, do you know the other ink- such as uv ink, pigment ink, solvent ink and soluble ink. Reading and following my this aritcle, I will tell you the advantages and disadvantages each of them.

1, pigment ink: the advantage is good light resistance; the disadvantage is that the color is relatively dark.

2, water sublimation ink: the advantage is that it can be transferred to different media, not only on paper. Such as ceramics and glass. Many different media can be transferred to the past; the disadvantage is that the operation procedure is more troublesome and the price is higher.

3, soluble ink: because oil soluble ink is made of pigment, its advantages are tasteless and light resistant; the disadvantage is that it is expensive and must be printed on the coated medium.

4, solvent ink: because it is pigmented, so its advantages are good light resistance and water repellency, and can be printed on any medium. The disadvantage is that the oil base used in this kind of ink is flammable, dangerous and strong. It has certain damage to the human body.

5, UV curable ink: the advantage is that the ink itself does not contain volatile solvents, and after curing, light resistance, waterproof are very good, so it is suitable for printing industry; the disadvantage is that before the curing, some of its monomers are easily caused by some people's allergic reaction.

UV ink is more and more widely used. The fast drying, stability and environmental protection of the UV inkjet printer are in a clear view in these hard media (easy acrylic, glass, tile and so on).

Okay, this is all I tell you the differences among dye sublimation ink and other kind ink. These inks our company sales all. If you have any other needs or questions welcome to contact us at any time. We will provide you the best quality product and service. Hope my article can be useful to you. Thank you for your reading.

What is the Risk of Choosing Non-genuine Sublimation Ink for Your Inkjet Printer?

Hi, good afternoon, my dear friends. I haven't update my blog with long time. Because of I participate in our Shanghai Expr last week. During this Shanghai Expr I gained a lot. I learned more about sublimation ink. So, today's topic is about dye sublimation ink. Do you know what is the What you need to know genuine sublimation inks? what is the risk when use non-genuine inks? About these questions, if you don't know the answer, following this article, I will tell you clearly!

What you need to know about inks?
Who wants to spend time thinking about their printer? It should just work. We’ve developed our inks and printers to work in harmony, so that they’ll do just that and give you consistent and reliable results without any fuss. That’s because we invest in extensive research, high-tech manufacturing facilities and put our products through rigorous tests.

But naturally, we can’t say the same for inks that we’ve not created. There’s no assurance from Epson that so-called compatible inks or remanufactured cartridges will deliver.

Are you willing to put yourself at risk of unreliable yields and poor prints? Or worse, the cartridges failing to work or the printer breaking? Secure yourself against potential printing pitfalls by using genuine Epson ink.

What are the risks with non-genuine inks?

We want you to always have a trouble-free printing experience. That’s why we're highlighting the potential issues you could encounter with non-genuine inks.
Imagine needing to print a flight ticket and it fails to work - because the nozzles have clogged or the printer is unable to recognise the cartridge. Or worse, the cartridge has arrived broken before you’ve even had a chance to get started.
Non-genuine inks aren’t designed and tested by Epson, which means that your printer could be vulnerable to malfunctions that are not covered by your printer warranty.

Okay, these all above are my share about the risk of choosing non-genuine sublimation transfer ink for your printer. If you have any other needs or questions welcome to contact us at any time. We will provide you the best quality product and service. Hope my article can be useful to you. Thank you for your reading.

Have You Know Materials are Used in Dye Sublimation Ink? What's Advantage of It?

Hi, nice to see you again, my dear friends. A week will over again. During the sublimation transfer printing, I believe that you must know dye sublimation ink. Then did you know materials are used in the sublimation ink. Now, let me talk about this topic.

In the specific use of sublimated ink need to see what is the materials it? Many people still want to see the basic market evaluation, that is, when we approve of it, we can know whether it is reasonable, and can rest assured to choose, after all, this kind of water in the use of the process. There are many advantages that can be achieved. They are widely used in many textile industries. The raw materials made from the distribution of dyes are also better in actual performance and function, so you can choose to use them safely.

Looking at the material of the body, it is now widely used to make some cloth, leather metal and other wood materials more, which means that the value of heat sublimation ink is more detailed to understand the use of the overall advantages of the tablet and popularity will be higher, so, in the choice of time must see whether the overall advantage of the value is not to play a role. A good choice of ceramic, glass and plexiglass sublimation inks when the actual effect or price comparison is that as long as we can understand in detail when doing these benefits can be learned from the value, in the whole market can know the role of ink is reasonable to choose.

The advantages of dye sublimation transfer ink

Compared with the traditional ink, Sublimation Ink has a fast drying speed, good environmental protection, good overprinting effect and high brightness and so on.
(1) Sublimation Ink curing speed; in the UV light irradiation, only a fraction of a second to a few seconds to cure, improve the production efficiency; due to curing instant dry, small dot expansion, ink penetration to the paper In the less, strength, clarity and stability are significantly better than ordinary ink; at the same time Sublimation Ink printing does not require powder, so that the printing operation environment can be improved.

(2) sublimed ink due to solvent-free, after curing the thickness of the ink layer and the same thickness of the printing ink, the weight per unit of Sublimation Ink compared with traditional inks, printing color reproduction ability stronger.

(3) As the sublimation of the chemical in the ink through the cross-linking reaction to form a polymer three-dimensional network of polymer, the ink surface has a strong chemical resistance and abrasion resistance in a variety of printing materials (including gold and silver cardboard, Film, synthetic paper, metal, plastic and other non-absorbent materials) on the fixed, strong adhesion.

(4) Sublimation Ink only in the ultraviolet radiation will occur under the cross-linking curing reaction, the printing machine will not dry, so when the ink will not solidification, you can immediately "run and stop", can reduce the printing preparation time ,Increase efficiency.

(5) Sublimation Ink, the monomer used for dilution can also be used as a curing component to participate in the curing reaction; therefore, Sublimation Ink can achieve almost 100% solid content, in the drying process without solvent evaporation, reduce the environment Of pollution.

(6) Sublimation Ink curing drying is used in UV light source, which is almost no heat effect of the cold light source, for those who are sensitive to heat-sensitive substrates will not be affected, applicable to heat-sensitive substrate printing, Not because of material deformation and other issues caused by ink film off, wrinkling and so on.

Do You Know How to Save Digital/ Sublimation Printing Ink? - There are Five Tips

Hello, nice to see you again, my dear friends. Do you know how to save money during digital printing? The most common printer-related complaints we get are from sublimation printing man bemoaning the high cost of sublimation transfer ink. Yes, sublimation ink can be costly—particularly for people who print in high volume—but there are ways to reduce your printing costs over time. Here, we offer some money-saving printing tips.

Take these tips, will help you to save digital printing ink!
Shop for a printer with a low cost per page. Many printers have a low sticker price, but when you factor in ink costs, you may be paying more for them in the long run. Ink or toner costs tend to be inversely proportional to a printer's price; high-end laser printers often have a very low cost per page, while budget inkjets frequently have high ink costs. But even for printers within a given price range, there may be considerable variation in running costs. It pays to do your research so you don't get stuck with a printer with inflated ink or toner costs.

Skyimage says---One caveat: The most economical cartridges are also the highest-capacity and the most expensive ones, so although you'll have to change them less frequently than the low-capacity cartridges, you will have to pay more for them up front. For instance, replacing a set of color laser toner cartridges can run several hundred dollars. And for inkjets, if you don't print a lot, you may be better off with lower-capacity cartridges.

Check your printer's software or driver settings. Most printers come with a user-friendly software interface that lets you access and tweak many of the printer's functions. All come with a printer driver—a program that controls the printer, converting files and commands into a format the printer can recognize. The driver offers a more direct way (and in some cases, the only way) to change settings, with all the settings accessible through a tabbed interface.

To find the driver, open the Printers page (in some Windows versions, it's called Devices and Printers) from the Start menu or the Control Panel, right-click on your printer's name or icon, and open the Printing Preferences tab.

Whether you work from the software interface or the driver, our recommendations are the same. Look for an ink-saver or toner-saver mode. Print in Draft mode except when presentation-quality output is required. Wherever possible, print in black and white instead of color. If your printer supports duplex printing, using it will enable you to save paper.

Third-party inks may save you money—but at a cost. Many third-party companies offer ink cartridges that they claim are compatible with given printers, at a considerable cost savings from the cartridges offered by the manufacturers. Although the savings are real, sometimes you'll pay even a higher price in headaches. Common complaints about third-party inks include degraded output quality and the need to frequently clean the nozzles. If you're still tempted to try third-party inks, do your homework: Do a search on the ink company and see what other users have said about its cartridges.

Take care of your ink and toner. With older ink cartridges, particulates may come out of solution and clog the nozzles. To prevent this, don't overstock on ink cartridges so they extend past their "use by" date. Also, match cartridge capacity to how much you actually print, to avoid having large-capacity cartridges languish beyond their time. (It's also a good idea to regularly clean the nozzles—your printer should have a setting that will clean the nozzles and print out a test sheet.)

Okay, these are tips that I tell you how to save digital printing inks. If you have any other needs or questions welcome to contact us at any time. We will provide you the best quality product and service. Hope my article can be useful to you. Thank you for your reading.

Which Kind Printing Ink Better for Your Business & Saving the Cost?

Hi, nice to see you again, my dear friends! A week will over again. Today's topic is about printer ink. There are several different types in regular use in digital printing, each with very different characteristics. Those characteristics are what you need to understand when making your investment decisions, because they can make a big difference in cost and quality.

The core of any inkjet printing system is the ink, which is essentially pigment suspended in a carrier liquid. The job of the ink is to deliver the pigment to the media and to bind it to the media’s surface. The range of substrates that the ink will work with, ultimately determines the applications that a printing engine can handle.

Make the wrong choice, and you will be disappointed with the results. Ink vendors are currently working to expand the range of substrates their inks will work with directly, so that substrates don’t need to be treated with a primer.

Ink manufacturers see huge potential beyond the graphic arts into more industrial uses for their ink products, such as furniture and car manufacturing. The carrier liquid plays a key role in determining which substrates the inks will work with.

Water is the cheapest and most sustainable carrier, but once it has delivered the pigment to the media, the water then has to be dried. Since water tends to soak into uncoated media, this also means that water-based inks can only print to coated media, and though there’s a fairly wide range of suitable substrates, this does push up the cost of consumables.

Nonetheless, standard aqueous ink printers are relatively cheap and have excellent colour fidelity. Typically aqueous inks can produce very sharp images with vibrant colours, and most vendors have models with up to twelve inks for increased colour gamut. This makes them suitable for producing photographic and fine art posters. Images from these printers are normally thought of as for indoor use only, however they can be laminated for outdoor use as well.

Material printed with aqueous inks is particularly suitable for retail point of purchase signs because it doesn’t give off the unpleasant odours common with some solvent and UV inks. The majority of textile printing also uses water based dye sublimation inks that are suitable for printing to polyester fabrics. The water acts as a carrier to place the pigment, either directly onto the fabric or onto a transfer sheet.

A heat press is then used to boil the inks to a gas, driving the pigment into the textile fibres, so that when the inks cool down the image has fused with the fabric, rather than simply sitting on top of its surface.


Okay, these all above are my share about the knowlege of many kinds printing ink. If you have any other needs or questions welcome to contact us at any time. We will provide you the best quality product and service. Hope my article can be useful to you. Thank you for your reading.

Why Does the Price of Sublimation Ink Grow Rapidly?

According to the recent published Inkjet Report, many people highlighting the growth of inkjet technologies in digital print and its prospects moving forward. Commercial printing inks continue to lead the digital revolution that makes digital and wide format the new standard. There are still questions of the direction print will go as more technologies get introduced in marketing. For now, commercial sublimation printing inks are seeing more growth year over year.

What is sublimation printing?
Commercial sublimation ink continues to grow. With the popularity of sublimation printing in our daily life.
Sublimation inks from Skyimage utilize popular desktop inkjet printers from Epson and Ricoh, and a standard heat press machine, to produce premium full-color, photographic quality images that will not crack, peel or wash away from the substrate.

The conversion is initiated by heat and controlled with pressure and time. Hard items such as ceramic, fiberboard, metals, etc. Requires a special coating on its surface to accept the sublimation inks. If the pressure, time or temperature is not appropriate for a particular sublimation blanks, then the quality of printing will be affected.

The characteristic of sublimation ink:
1. Using high-quality imported raw materials, fine particles, the average size of 0.2um, fluency, not clogging the print head, suitable for continue printing;

2. The unique formula of environmental protection, not damage the print head;
3. Transfer-tested, rubbing wear color fastness 5, perspiration-resistant color fastness 5, 5 color fastness to water, direct contact with the skin, not harmful to humans;
4. Proof of professional treatment, colorful screen, and fine reducibility.
5. Strong water proof ability, long-term display ability can be printed on transfer paper;
6. The top grade sublimation inks can be used on mug/plate/garment/glass/metal/flag and so on;
7. The sublimation inkjet inks will keep the printer head clean, so there is no broken line in long term printing. All of this will improve the reliability,
productivity, and efficiency of your printing machine;
8. More than 18 months outdoor durability.

What the wide application of sublimation inks?

1. Polyester and polyamide fabrics, spandex, lycra, nylon used in sports apparel and outdoor clothing
2. Plastic substrates like skis, snowboards, skateboards and surfboards
3. Mixed synthetic fabrics(used in sports apparel and outdoor clothing) with a minimum polyester content of 60%

“The strongest markets for digital printing include commercial, high-speed office, and emerging applications such as packaging,” someone continued. “Many factors drive growth in these segments, such as greater demand for customization, shorter runs and the need for continued cost reductions.”

Sublimation inks is with so many advantages, the future is bright for digital printing. All the ink producers anticipate commercial printing ink will reach year over year double digit growth. Packaging is leading the growth, but sublimation paper applications will continue to see growth as well.

Are you Really Know UV printing? Does UV Inks Can Adhere to Any Surface?

Hi, nice to see you again, dear friend! It's a nice day in Nanjing. Today' s topic is about UV printing. Are you really know UV printing? Reading and following, I will share you more?

Understanding UV Printing

To understand how a UV flatbed printer is different from the other print machines, we need to go back to our earlier examples of inkjet, laser, solvent, offset, etc. printers. In each of these machines, media, confirming to strict set of specifications (like paper size, thickness, uniform flatness, etc.) has to pass in and out of the printer. Remember, the printer stays in its place. It is the media that is always moving.

But a UV flatbed is constructed differently. It has a bed or table which is stationery. This table also has inbuilt vacuum suction. The UV print heads are mounted on a gantry that moves along the X and Y axis of the table. When you need to print upon an object, you simply place it on the bed /table. The vacuum suction holds the object in place. This ensures that the object does not shift inadvertently or due to machine vibrations. At the time of printing, the gantry moves the print mechanism in the directions of left / right and up / down. The print heads fitted in the gantry, cover all the area on the print bed. They fire ink on any object placed on the bed and the same gets printed upon.

UV Inks can adhere to any surface

UV inks as the name suggests get cured by ultraviolet rays. These inks are sprayed in a liquid form on the print surface. An ultra violet lamp then passes over the inks and solidifies them in place. Inkjet inks require coated papers to reproduce high resolution images. Laser toner cannot adhere to rough and textured papers. But UV inks are unique in the sense that they are media independent. These inks can be applied to smooth surfaces like plastic or rough surfaces like wood. You can use them to print on stone, ceramics, marble, glass, acrylic, etc. As long as the UV lamps cure the inks properly, they solidify and faithfully stick to just about any rigid surface.

Direct print on objects using UV flatbed printing
Flatbed UV printers are tweaked to…

• Print on an object by placed on the print bed
• They use inks which adhere to just about any surface

Because of the two properties mentioned above, the applications of flatbed UV printing are limited only by your imagination. Given below, are some of the applications of the same…

The application of UV printing

• Printing logos and product pics on diaries and folders: Customers bring in diaries and folders from stationers shops. We print company logos and product images directly on to the diaries.
• Print on wood: Some of our customers bring in blocks of wood, to be printed upon.
• Print on ACP sheets: Residential buildings need to install name boards in their lobbies, displaying the names of the occupants. UV flatbed printing can directly print the names on sheets of ACP – aluminum composite panel.
• Print on glass: Flatbed UV printing can also be done on the reverse surface of sheets of glass. When you view the glass from the front, you get a beautiful back painted glass effect.
• Print on acrylic: Flatbed UV printers can be used to print directly onto sheets of acrylic. Company logos, display boards, images, etc. look amazing when printed on acrylic.
• Print on switch boards, control panels and membrane panels: Control panel printing is another interesting application of flatbed UV printing. Clients bring in their blank panels. We reverse print the company logo, directions, control symbols, etc. directly onto the same.
• Printing on gift items: Personalizing gift items becomes very easy, using flatbed UV printing. Orchid Digitals can prints on key chains, pens, mouse pads, tea coasters and even peripherals like mouse and keyboards. In fact, there was a customer who walked in with a Rubik’s Cube. We printed different images on the six surfaces of the same.
• Print name plates: Name plates made of wood, acrylic, ACP or even glass can be instantly produced using UV printing technology
