Unveiling the Magic of Dye-Sublimation Printing!
Dye-sublimation is the latest evolution in large format printing. A dye-sublimation printer is a computer printer which uses heat to transfer dye onto materials. The printer uses a very long roll of transparent film in blue, yellow, red and gray colored cellophane. There are dyes in yellow, black, cyan and magenta within the film. The printer heats up as it passes over the film, causing the dyes to vaporize and spread through the material before they cool and return to a solid form.
These printers allow us to print on textiles with vibrant colors, without changing the feel of the fabric. When fabrics are printed on with a dye-sublimation printer, the ink becomes part of the structure of the material, rather than being printed on the surface. This means that the dye is permanent and won’t fade or crack, even after multiple washes.
There are two factors that set apart dye-sublimation printing from other printing techniques, continuous tone and unedited color. The Mimaki JV5-320S utilizes eco-friendly water-based ink in a highly efficient paper transfer process that permanently embeds images into a variety of fabrics and textiles up to 126” wide. Images are printed onto a special coated paper and then heat sublimated into textiles, which can later be washed and folded without a trace of lost image quality. This final product is scratch resistant, and many of the textiles are wrinkle resistant for easy packing and shipping. Printed textiles display a smooth, premium appearance in any environment, expanding the creative boundaries of other materials and processes.
