nice video, thanks, is Epson L3256 can be used as sublimation printer ?

Yes! Any of the Eco Tank models can be converted into a sublimation printer...just don't add the regular ink, only use the sublimation ink from the beginning! 😊

@@dinadikgalemolebogeng8210 You can, but you need to be sure to do it correctly. You can follow this tutorial from my friend Cori for how to do that: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mNSFfdF5s6iRfJ8.html

Hi, how did you empty ink tank?

@Happinessishomemade 11 ай бұрын

I started with a brand-new printer that had not previously been filled with ink. It is possible to flush the tanks if the printer has already been filled with standard ink, but it's a messy process, and the results can still be hit or miss. It's best to use a brand-new printer for sublimation.

I did all this. Why did my ink run out of the bottom of the printer?

You DO NOT have to use a syringe....

No, you do not. There are now bottles available that allow you to directly (and MUCH more easily!) fill the tanks of the printer; however, those bottles were not yet available back when this video was initially filmed. :)
