Do i have to buy different inks for the Ricoh SG3110DN to heat press onto mugs. Sorry i'm really a novice to this.

You are not just buying a standard Ricoh SG3110DN to use with the standard Ricoh inks ... this is an important point. You need to buy the printer from a sublimation printing supplier, who will be able to sell you it as a package with the sublimation (mug) printing inks.

Yes, you can buy it from BMS http://www.printerowners.co.uk. It might be worth becoming a premium member for £10 on here first as you might get that back on your first order :biggrin:
