Hi, Total Novice Newbie, Career Change

Hi All,

Newbie from Cheshire, i have invested in a 5 in 1 heat press, 2 Epson printers, 2 ciss kits, and 4 litres of ink, had it all delivered this week and set it up today, ive done a few mugs, my own designs, couple came out ok, just need advice on a few issues so thought i would have a nosy round ere,

Working out the heat press was fun, but spilling a full syringe of red ink on a 1 week old lounge carpet was the most interesting part of the day.

welcome on board! Once you divorced (ink on the carpet ) seat back with a beer and pizza and read a lot

Cillit Bang Power cleaner Grease and Sparkle for the carpet - although it might spread and make it look worse..your decision! Which Epson printers?

[petedale]

Haahaa, The carpet ended up with a faded pink patch, fortunately my missus likes rugs! hahahaa, Not the best start to sublimation but hey! its good fun,

I have bought 2 Epson 217 printers, both have had something replaced so sublimation ready, they are both producing very nice prints, i know they are not the top of the range but as i am learning i am sure i will upgrade to a more recommended model,

Welcome.. and I advise a steady supply of coffee/tea and a few hours on here.. regards the stain on the carpet.. leave some bicarb of soda on it overnight and see if that brings anymore of the stain out lol
