RE: Dye Sublimation printers?????
Up to now i have been printing with a regular Canon inkjet printer onto waterslide decal paper.....I clearcoat it with clear laquer and stick it on.....it works fine but as you know, inkjet wont print white and the ink is too transparent for some applications. I saw a Kodak printer dock in action the other day and was impressed with the quality of the colors. The system uses a cartridge with three color film in it.....I believe the colors are transfered onto the paper by heating the dye on the film, The paper makes three passes through the printer, then a fourth pass to put on a clearcoat. I dont think there is any ink involved at all. I could'nt help but think it would make beautifull decals !!
