Yes, any Epson inkjet printer can use sublimation inks. As with any printer being used for sublimation you will need an ICC to get the right colours from the inks. This is sometimes provided by the ink manufacturer or reseller, and sometimes you have to get a custom one made.

If you want to use your existing icc then you need same printer that wa used to create icc. Otherwos it wont work.

As Paul said, each different printer model will need a different ICC (unless they are technically the same printer, but cosmetically different with a new model number!)
