      Regular paper has a high cotton content, so the ink absorbs into it, hence, no transfer. We only recommend using the Pacon paper.

    Great video - thank you!
    One question: Could we use the nozzle from the original ink bottles on top of the Eco Ink to fill the tanks to save making a funnel (like you did in the original video), or is there something that stops this working on the new Epson model? Thanks!

    • @ElectrumTV
      @ElectrumTV  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I think some people have managed to do that. For me getting that cap off of the original bottle was tricky and it had to be cleaned, so I opted to just make a funnel, it's pretty easy and likely less messy.

    I filled the the black tank mostly with trace amounts in the other three tanks as well. But when I attempt to print it says either "check that your ink is filled" or it says rear paper port has run out when I try to print. I'm using regular tracing paper so I don't know it that is the problem or what? Could uo u please offer some advice?

    • @ElectrumTV
      @ElectrumTV  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Maybe fill the other color tanks a bit more. The type of paper shouldn't cause a problem because the printer doesn't have a way to distinguish between paper types.

    • @ElectrumTV
      @ElectrumTV  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      While you do not necessarily have to use the printer daily, you do need to use it frequently or yes, it will dry on the print heads and affect print quality, or potentially ruin the printer. We recommend also cleaning the print heads every 30 days.

Is there any to remove the ink or will have wait until the ink runs out? If that is the case will I be able to fill machine with sublimation ink after all ink is gone. Does the old ink required to be cleaned out if so can it be done. Just bought this machine I hope there is a solution. Thanks for any help.

      Even when you print in black and white, the ink still pulls from the other tanks, as far as I know. You should research that some prior to doing so. You don't want regular printer ink mixed with stencil ink.

      Increase your contrast on the source image. Remember that an inkjet printer prints exactly as it interprets the source image, so you want to have super dark lines, especially if it's a hand drawn image rather than a digital one.

      Hi Ellie,
      I think I saw an email come through from you as well. You stated there that you were using the Inkjet brand paper. This is ok, it is the same paper we sell, they just have their name branded on theirs and ours is the brand name.
      That being said, what method of transfer are you using? Be sure the skin is super clean and free of oils, use hand sanitizer or alcohol if you don't have Electrum Prep on hand. Then be sure you're using a good transfer solution. Are you using our product or another? If ours, are you using the green or the white?
      Finally, what model is your printer?
      We should be able to solve the issue.

    Hey Rob! I wanted to ask a question about getting my hands on a printer, I think in buying Epson EcoTank ET-M1120 with the Electrum ECO Stencils Printer Ink. How can I preserve the Ink without drying inside the tank? And also for the paper I will go with InkJet Stencil Paper 500 units, will that combo work out well? Great video, keep it up!

    • @ElectrumTV
      @ElectrumTV  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You need to run a print once every day or two days to keep fresh ink on the heads. If you let it sit too long it will dry and then you'll need to go through the process of cleaning or flushing the heads. That's with the standard printers like the M1120. If you want to avoid that, get a sublimation style printer like the SureColor F170 or similar. Just be sure it's bluetooth capable or you'll have to print from the Epson app and it has limitations.

      I don't think so. We only recommend using Eco tank printers. And you should start with a new printer that hasn't already been contaminated with regular ink. We strongly recommend the ET-2650.

      Hi there :) It could be a number of things. I'm not too familiar with that particular printer model, and we have had mixed results with various models. We've narrowed down the scope to a few printers that we have found to work well. Did you go through the entire setup process, including doing the initial head cleanings after you installed the ink?

      Not sure about the 2400, we haven't tested that model. Theoretically any tank style printer should work, however some models are more problematic. We LOVE the sublimation type tank printers the best. Take a look at the Sure Color F170, that's or go to.

      No, you should not mix stencil ink with regular ink and print both from the same printer. Remember, you're placing stencils onto skin, then penetrating needles through the stencil ink. You do not want to risk having regular ink in that.

      We really like the sublimation style printers now, since discovering them. Especially the Sure Color F-170. They handle the inks so much better because they're made for sublimation inks. The only drawback is that we haven't found one that's air drop compatible, so you have to have the Epson app on your ipad to print to it.

      We're sorry you feel that way. The fact that it worked and then doesn't indicates that the printer is not being used frequently enough or has not been properly maintained. The use of this ink requires more frequent head cleanings. It is unrealistic to expect it to work the same as factory ink and we are very specific about this in all of our instructions and descriptions. Many many artists use this product successfully all over the globe. We highly recommend the Epson Sure Color F170 sublimation printers.
