i currently have the s22 but i think it may be bottom of the pile when it comes to sublim printing
what is the best printer and is there such thing as a ciss sytem for sublim ink as i hate having to fill up with a syringe
any links to a site selling a setup would be good or even if someone selling a decent printer let me know
Do new printers come with ICC profile or whatever it called ??

alot of ppl use the epson B1100 which also has a bulk feed system available
actually i have a bulk system for sale
the printers are relatively cheap but must be used regularly or your'll get blocked heads
if not the ricoh are good so i've been told

paul u proberly heard all sorts of daft questions so heres another
when im printing the colors look sort of dark and even after heating it on cup they still dark.
I just throught cause of the paper it would look different but better when heated up on cup
Should it look on paper same as it should on cup is what im trying to say

usually before they are pressed they are lighter and more fainter
and then once you apply the heat all the colours become more vibrant
i;ve never heard of anyone saying the colours were darker?
