Suzanne B 1 Posted January 17, 2022 I have the Sawgrass SG500 with the sublijet HD ink and chromablast paper can I use these to do a sublimation print on a mug or a wine tumbler or do I need other kind of paper? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted January 17, 2022 chromablast paper is just for chromablast inks - you want Texprint-r that is made for the gel inks the ricoh printer uses and won't smear like cheaper sublimation papers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Suzanne B 1 Posted January 17, 2022 I have the chromablast inks also is what I am printing with.. can I use this ink and paper for sublimation images on mugs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted January 17, 2022 no - chromablast for cotton shirts - different product and if you switch back and forth to sublimation ink as you first stated you had you will waste a lot of money clearing the lines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted January 20, 2022 used to love doing those orders before I got lazy. if you find organizations or golf tournaments there is a lot of repeat business 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
