Yes, either with prefilled carts available from Sawgrass (and some other vendors) or with a set of refillable cartridges and bottled inks.
Is an excellent printer, much higher quality in terms of build and print when compared to small home printers.

OK, thank you! Inc is sawgrass with refillable cartridges.

Yes, you can buy Sawgrass inks in bottles or carts

Interested to know what you're printing that needs this printer? We used to have a similar model the 4800 I think it was. I always had issues with it and found the smaller Epson models far better to work with. We ran with 8 colours which really want required for day to day use.

S22 to this? Blimey, that's one heck of a jump! lol. For phone cases and mugs you really don't need anything this heavy duty in my opinion. An A3 Ricoh would be a good investment and unlikely to give you the problems you've had with the S22's. Even an A4 Ricoh would probably be ok for your needs.

The vast majority of users are more than happy with just 4 colours for sublimation. Personally I do prefer 6 colours but having printed with more (8 for example) I'm yet to be convinced sublimation makes good use of the extra colours.
