Vynalman, if the printer was sealed when you received it and you installed the ink in the little bottles it looks like it isn't sublimation ink, were you sold it as a sublimation setup?
We are currently testing out the Epson ET-2500 with the Sublinova ink and after a couples of profiles this printer and ink set up is working very well.
if it is the regular ink you have installed you will need to remove as much of the ink from the printer as possible then flush it. If you need anymore help or advice give us a call on 01228712128 and ask to speak to Adam.

Obvious question - are you using sublimation mugs? Only 4 things you need, sublimation mugs, Sub paper and inks and a mug press that gets hot enough.

Hello! I have the same problem with my mug printing. When i take it out from the heat press there is nothin on my mug. I'm using the Epson L310 with the inks that came with the printer that obviously are not sublimation inks as i read here. But can i only remove the color from the bottles in printer and wash them? I asked someone that makes sublimation and he told me that if i have already printed with the normal inks the printer won't work on sublimation inks anymore, that i have to buy a new printer. So now i'm a little confuse because i don't want to buy another printer if i already have a new one.

You would need to flush the inks out completely to enable the sublimation ink to then be put into your bottles. This is best done using the actual sublimation inks but you will waste a great deal, probably fill any waste pad/tank etc.

If I were you I'd start a fresh with a new printer. A decent setup can be bought from a reputable supplier for a reasonable price.

I'm assuming the inks you got with the printer were just the standard 'in the box' supplied? Were you sold it as a sublimation printer?

But if i flush the ink and refill it with sublimation inks will it work? Flush it only with water? No it wasn't sold as a sublimation printer, i read somewhere that the epson L310 is good for beginners to do sublimation, so i bought it. I told the seller that i want to print on mugs, but didn't know what i'm talking about. I bought the printer in a normal store not in a store for sublimation. I thought that there are sublimation inks, but i didn't ask.

Printers can be flushed with distilled water but it's not always an easy task. You will need to buy the sublimation inks this is why I suggested speaking to local suppliers as the printer in the scheme of things may not be a huge investment.

I know what you mean, but i don't need two printers. If i could flush the inks would be great otherways i'm gonna sell this one and buy a new one. Is there any guide how to flush it?

would this solve my problem?

Not 100% but you're printer looks like an ET2500! If so the ink tanks are built on and tubes all direct to heads so no. Don't waste your money on a cis it won't help.
