Hippo ink costs $24 for a standard four-color kit, but you will need syringes to fill this one. We wouldn’t bother with the warranty aspect because you will void it when you put sublimation ink into it. These printers aren’t for newbies you must practice the craft on a cheaper one before settling for a premium sublimation printer. Moreover, my ink spillage and wastage are significantly less with EcoTank. Just attach the ink bottle with a specialized nozzle (Hiipoo and a few other brands make these) and fill the ink color. So, you don’t need to pop out ink cartridges and use syringes to fill in the sublimation ink carefully. Epson Ecotank ModelsĮpson EcoTank offers the easiest-to-execute conversion because it comes with a separate ink tank module instead of regular cartridges.

Instead, my advice would be to buy a brand new ( not old or secondhand) Epson EcoTank, Workforce, or Expression series printer and tweak or convert it to work as a sublimation printer. While Epson offers off-the-shelf sublimation printers in the SureColor series, they aren’t suitable for someone who is just starting. Epson Inkjet Printers You Can Convert and use For Sublimation Otherwise, if you are under little budget constraints and can take the extra steps to convert then eco tanks are your best option. If you want ease of use, support and auto maintenance go with the Sawgrass printers ($500+). But which one?īut there is a caveat of choosing one between these two. So, if you want to jump into customized print designs on clothes or various objects, I suggest converting an Epson inkjet printer into a sublimation printer. Same price like Sawgrass but much better than Sawgrass.
