I have a Epson 9800 printer that I am considering converting to sublimation inks. What print applications is this size of printer best suited to?

What brand of ink would you suggest. Its an 8 colour machine.

Thanks for your advice.

I've recently had to ditch my 9880. This was also on 8 colours. You're very limited on what you can use. I was sold some inks called "Studio" and they were utter rubbish. Inktec are great but they've stopped supplying the LLK in Europe. You can run without it (7 colour) but it's a shame to reduce the use of the printer.

I'm sure we are using LLK in a 4880 on Inktec. Think I had to buy some last month for it. I do like the 4000 models as you can do sheet and roll fed.
