No more messing about putting sublimation inks into printers that weren't designed to take them. A printer (two in fact!) is coming from Epson which is designed for sublimation inks, and has ink designed to go with it.

From this article,is the quote
http://www.printweek.com/news/1159641/e ... es-launch/
"
"We saw that a lot of customers were buying our printers designed for aqueous graphic printing and using sublimation ink," he said. "So we looked at the issues in the market and decided to develop our own ink and tailor the printheads [for dye sub printing]."He added: "We have developed our own Ultrachrome DS aqueous ink and tailored our MicroPiezo head to work with it. We can deliver significantly improved reliability because the machines use all our technology.""

Be interesting to see the price per litre of Epson's own sublimation inks.
