I want 1
The 1 u print
Nice video Rich!!! If I could offer one bit of advice when sublimating...don't let the press pop open. The sub paper and garment/item will shift causing ghosting (double print). Slowly lift it up. The sublimation process is still bonding after the press is opened because of the temperature. ✌🏽
Seems you know what you are talking about... What equipment do yo use ? Printer, Press and Paper? Thanks!
@@mksimports7056 I use the Epson F-570 for sublimation with the roll paper that comes with the Epson. I also use HPN Signature Series heat press.
@@jbmdesignco.693 Thank you sir!
Thanks
If Sawgrass isn't available in your area or you have tighter budget, you buy Epson L1800 ($500) or Epson L805 ($250) new without putting any inks and just put sublimation inks instead. They print a bit slower but save much more. FYI, L1800 could print up to A3+ and L805 prints up to A4 size.
The biggest con is it does not do on dark color materials. Yet, having one for light color materials won't hurt as the maintenance is pretty much as the same with normal dye inks.
DTG and DTF have their pros for having white color and could do on dark materials but maintenances are nightmare. Not to mention the processes involved.
I bought a Epson Ecotank Photo ET-8550, prints 13” by 19” or 12.95” by 70+ inches with custom size. You dont need to convert this printer as it is a Ecotank so you just fill the ink up and thats all! (If new and no other i k was put inside)
It is great no problems at all had printed over 200 full pages full colors at 12.95” x 32” , colors are great.
Ink is not the cheapest at $80 (for 6 colors 120ml each bottle.) and you have to cut rolls into the size you want but other than that prints great.
Also $699, not the cheapest but cheaper than the sawgrass which only prints 11x17 and the ink is much more expensive.
What ink did you use? I just purchased the 8550 and looking for the best ink.
@@latonyawhite2774 This is what I currently use. www.ebay.com/itm/294207156810
I have had no problems with it, has not clogged once, no lines have appeared or anything.
Either way this one might not be the best in the market but for me it does the job very well, sadly the big brands don’t make 6 color sublimation ink for the ET-8550 that has 2 blacks and 1 gray, yet at least.
What's a good place to purchase the 8550
@@pkilla617 I bought mine from Office Max.
@@latonyawhite2774 thanks for reply this definitely looks like a good printer for sublimation how it working out for you
I love your videos man, you get straight to it and always give it your genuine review.
KEEP GOING, RICH! You are Da Man! Thanks, man. You mr channel is Excellent! I appreciate you!
Appreciate you!
I love tri blend shirts. the most comfortable lightweight shirts out. Cotton, poly and rayon. preferably combed cotton.
I needed this video. I was looking for a sub printer. Def had my eyes on the Sawgrass SG1000. Looks good
Depending on your budget I recommend the Icolor 560. You can buy the sublimation toner separate. I print regular full color t-shirts, sublimated t-shirts, stickers, etc. I like the Uninet cuz I want to print on darker tees. If sublimation is you focus, the Sawgrass is as good as you can get. Just my opinion.
Dope Vid B.. last yr bout epson wf7840 for $250 converted it & prints 13x19". Plus you can speed up the prints.
How often did you use it? Did it clog any?
@@tavianstewart7960 Use it daily, but if you do not print daily (like few days a week), you have to do some maintrnance: Print head cleans weekly or every 2 weeks (treat it like a oil change on auto) .. that off my personal experiences.
Fellow Cambodia too! Binge watching ur vids! Greatly detail looking to start up a small business and your tips and advice are really hopeful. Thanks for the insight keep it up!
I love your Bloopers in your videos..keep it authentic🤣🤣🤣
I subscribed because of your final comment in the video. That's decency. You have a follower.
You are an interesting dude and informative as hell , learning alot from your tutorials, keep on keeping on playa .
Get you some EasySubli for darks and cotton. Cheaper than using other alternatives... do you!
Thanks Rich - LOVE your WORK !!!!
Khmer pride! Let’s get it! I’m new to the tshirt game. Watching your vids has helped out a lot!! I have everything but a sublimation printer. Purchasing one soon!
you are best video UA-camr and step by step outstanding video y are best out there Aaaaaa
For someone trying to start a cloting e-commerce your really giving amazing advice and insight thank you
I Have a sawgrass 400 and i found out you can use regular copy paper and it works just as good.
Yes sawgrass machines are quick and easy
Plug and play for sure!
Great video Rich! Another shirt to check out for sublimation are the Next Level 6200's. They are 65% poly and probably the softest shirt you will ever wear.
Also, you can print on colored shirts (besides black), but you are limited on what colors you can use for your design as they always have to be darker than the shirt. Works for me though because I do a lot of vintage stuff and the monochromatic look is where it's at for me
Appreciate that!
That Angkor Wat t-shirt though!! 🔥 🇰🇭🇰🇭
Nice job on the video. Don't forget your butcher paper. You need a layer between the transfer and your press so it doesn't mess it up. Also you need a sheet of butcher paper inside the garment otherwise you rise the gasses pressing onto the back of it. New sheet of butcher paper each time.
Excellent tutorial!! I sincerely appreciate you sharing everything!! Beautiful designs too!!
🤩👍☝👏💪👌🤩
Keep sharing the wealth of knowledge, your a blessing. 🙏🏽
Rich try the Jerzees 21M they are 100% Poly but feel like 100% cotton. We use these for all our prints. You will not be disappointed. Stay well, stay blessed.
Appreciate that, definitely trying it asap!
Always good content! And yes this is searching for information. You do YOU Rich! ✌🏼 ❤️ 🤑
Hey rich try the gorge t shirt from Walmart n see if you like it they have different colors and 65%poly/35%cotton that's what I use and it works great
Thank you. I swing by your channel for information! Thanks for sharing your time and knowledge.
rich, what do you do to prevent the press from making an imprint on the shirt??
on the 50/50 shirts i use subli spray let it dry. then leave the transfer sheet 10 to 15 more seconds so that all the ink on the paper transfer. it looks more vibrant
What equipment do you use? Printer, Paper, and Press?
I see you've got something on your heat press to protect it from any excess ink/gas; what is that? Almost looks like packing tape or somethin'.
People seem to use silicone paper or copy paper; have you transitioned to anything else?
Great content as usual, really excited to get my stuff set up this week!
Hey I'm just starting sublimation cause I got everything for Christmas. Can I just take a picture print it and press it?
Yup definitely can. As long as its a polyester garment or has a poly coating
I have to use butcher paper to prevent ink from bleeding onto my heat press plate. Does the sublimation paper you are using prevent that? I also have to put a piece of paper between the shirt to prevent it bleeding through.
So if you use siser subli in sawgrass printer you cant sub on dark clothing
what is your temperature and tension on the press?
whats the link for the bottle openers
how long does the ink last when making shirts? how much does the ink cost?
Nice video, Rich!!
I understand why you went with a Sawgrass. Time is money.
Just letting people know that you can "convert" a lot of Epson printers to sublimation printing. Plenty of information out there. You save a bit of cash and avoid buying into what seems like a somewhat closed ecosystem. Printer companies usually get you on the consumables. Also Sawgrass doesn't have a presence in all countries like Epson.
There are several ways to sublimate onto cotton. Sublimation spray, transfers etc. Again, plenty of information out there.
100% agree! Mentioned that about 2-3 videos back as well, you're definitely right!
SUBLIMATION has to be a synthetic material like polyester. a blend won't show up as well
Did you print black onto a white license plate?
Yes
Also, with your Sawgrass and EasySubli vinyl you can do full color. 😁👍
I have a question kinda stupid but what's the paper he is using
Sublimation printing doesn't work on dark colors?
No. Darker colors absorb lighter colors. So you can only print on a white or light colored garment.
Loving your videos in funky England! Hate white T shirts though - in my world of music & bands nobody wears white T shirts so how can I print great quality in colour on black or grey? Many thanks for your advice ✌️✨
Check out easy subli
@@mialozano5441 Thank you Mia! I’ll check that out 🖤✨
Great video. Question, just thinking of getting into this - where do you get the graphic from?
There's tons of places online. Canva, placeit, etsy, etc.
Can you please link the plate cover, I'm currently working with a 16x20 and that cover is such a time saver.
Why did you not trim the edge
Great content as always! Do you create your own artwork for the items you sell on the various market places?
What is the paper ur printing on?
How do you prevent the burn lines? Those lines that are left behind because of the edge of the paper.
usually we rip around the edge of the design so it isn't a harsh, cut line but its a rounded, torn edge!! That seems to help!
Pressing pillow
Where you from? I here hood and ninja in your tone lol. It’s all 🫶🏾, thanks for the informative video.
Lol born and raised in Columbus, GA, live in Atlanta
How is it you are not getting press lines or paper edge lines on the polyester shirts. I was told vapour form was needed to eliminate press lines.
When your doing sublimation do you have to mirror that pic too as well?
Yes
keep doing it !greate informations thx
What brand and size heat press is that? Did it come with a stand? Pardon me if you’ve already answered these questions
So if I’m just starting out, would you suggest I just go through printful? I saw that my shirts will come out to $16-20 to make & I can’t bite the bullet just yet because I feel like that’s hella money. So I’m torn between just buying the equipment & doing it myself or if I should bite the bullet & go through printful😩 can you guide me please 🥺
Where do you get your blanks from? I've been researching to find the best pricing. The WALA bottle openers at Heat Transfer Warehouse are $3 a piece or $2.30ish for a box.
We need to know the answer to this question!
Is it green bc of the trees reflecting from the water ?
Thanks for the video. Question, I seeyou didn't use parchment paper. I see other people use one piece of parchment paper and others use 2 pieces of parchment paper. What's the safest way to go? I feel like the less parchment paper, the less time it takes to press a shirt. Thanks again
Use paper because if you don’t, there is sometimes left over ink that will press onto your next shirt. It could be super noticeable or it could be super faint where you only see it in super bright light. I’ve made that mistake so many times, so now, I always use paper on top. And if your shirt is super thin, you can also use paper inside the shirt so the ink doesn’t get onto the back of the shirt. It hasn’t affected the pressing time at all.
Yo bro 🤔 what heat transfer paper are you using that's not leaving a white background on the shirts??? I've been using a cricut 2 or hand to cut out white backgrounds. But thats time consuming. Please drop me a jewel 💯
:update I finished the video lol. So Walasub paper 🤔? This paper only captures the inked image and transfer that without the background?
Hi i have been watching you for about a month now and I have a question did u print on transfer paper?
You print on sublimation paper
Great video bro
You should review the siser easy subli htv. Keep up the good work
Have you tried the triblends?
Have you used the Easy Subli yet?
Whats the best ink for sublimation printing. I ran out of options....🥺🥺
What is a good profit point?
how do you get the sub print background white to not transfer onto the t shirt
Any recommendations for sublimating onto black tshirts?
Siser Sublithin
Hi Rich, May I ask if you can print sublimation ink on same cloth type that you printed but color black?
no
@@HustleNinjas Okay, thanks sir :D
You should’ve used the Polycrylic spray too
Awesome video BRUH!!!!
just gave me some ideas Good video
i never understood why the sawgrass software was web based though, annoyed the hell out of me when i had to use it at times.
You do lose ink if you let them sit for a while. I lost ink today on my Sawgrass with Chromablast inks lol.
is it better to use sawgrass sublimation or going the vinyl style way?
They all have their pros and cons

@@HustleNinjas people have been talking about the Epson Ecotank way would that be a good option too? and if so does it matter what kind?
@@wayomilizama5366 It's a good way to start on the more economic side. While it is cheaper, it also comes with its set of problems. Like the fact that if something goes wrong, its on you to fix it. There is no warranty when converting your Epson printer to a sublimation printer. It gets voided. That being said, I used one for over a year until it gave out and I purchased a Sawgrass.
Thank you!! 🔥
I know you sit too close to that heat press.. ouch... oh... thats where you got ur tan... 😊
what brand is the t shirt your wearing? like who'e the manufacturer, and what's the name of the t shirt
Next level 3600
@@HustleNinjas thanks alot
Can you use supa color on cotton shirts
Yes
Is this the same type of printer as the iColor 350?
SG-1000
Yo bro, what is the biggest size paper you can put in the bottom tray without the buying the extra bypass tray?
I think 11 x 17
@@HustleNinjas Yes, that is what I ordered! Thanks for the help bro. When my company gets bigger, we should link up! I could use more advice and knowledge.
What budget printers would you recommend?
Hate to say it, but $1750 is a budget friendly printer. If you're looking for something cheaper, look into going the DIY route.
What does it mean if the lines from the paper are showing on some of the shirts? Is it on there too long or not long enough? For example I have a 8x11 frame looking pic but parts of the box frame is showing up on the shirt.
I believe you should be tearing away the edges of the paper unfortunately I didn’t do it in this video.
@@HustleNinjas lol it was that and the pressure was too much, I turned the pressure down and printing like a champ! Thanks for the help!
i think it's the pressure or the heat cause if u see the paper still has a lot of ink on it
You’re probably right, I’ll play around with it.
Cambodia!!!
I was told with a sawgrass printer you need a Mac. Does it not work with windows?
Works great with Windows
Good video brother
Do you know of any company in Atlanta that does screen printed transfers. I've called quite a few places but they all say no and to research online. Just trying to find something local. Thanks my Ninja🙏
Don’t know if any. I just use 613
Angkor watt that what sup
And you did not use your lint brush
Are you by any chance Cambodian in ethnicity?
Yes
it honestly looks better faded.
Print every week.
Why people dont like polyester? Cotton shrinks, and its heavier.
nice
I know you may have answered this but, how do you get away with ‘Free Worldwide Shipping’... and make a Profit?
I don't ship worldwide anymore, but when I did and when I did do it for free, it was after they spent over $100.
International First Class used to be around $15-$30.
Don't know if it's still the same, but you'll just have to do the math and see if it's worth it for you.
@@HustleNinjas Truly Appreciated! Math Leaves No Mystery, ha - My gift for you to use 'Hustle Leaves No Mystery'. It's original
What printer and what paper you use ??
Sawgrass sg1000. Walasub paper.
