What kind of ink do I need to use or will work best with this opaque transfer paper, regular dye/inject ink, pigment ink, or sublimation ink?

Regular dye inkjet will work but for durability and best look pigment ink is recomendedsublimation ink does not work for this paper

I just use my regular ink jet printer ink. I have found if pressed correctly with heat press, it turns out well. This is not the right paper for sublimation inks, but I don't know about the others you mentioned. ;) Hope this helps

I have a T-shirt shop and use a HP Officejet Pro 8610 e-All-in-One PrinterIt uses the pigment ink which make colors more vibrant and last longer.I didn't think it would matter, but it really does, it made a big difference.Also the ink seems to last so much longer than any other printer I have used.Just as important, if not more, is how and what you use to apply the heat transfer.Good Luck

All inkjet printers will work. No laser just plain old inkjet ink. I use epson 1400's and I refill my own cartridges and have done 100's of the prints.

Hey Fernando, to answer your question I don't think you can use the ones you have I myself bought the epson workforce 30 for sublimation and it works really good I have not had any issues at all and I got refillable ink cartridge hand the sublimation ink in bulk for about 70 bucks and you can print hundreds of sheets with that or you can go with a much more expensive printer the Ricoh for about 300.00 and the ink itself is another 350.00 and you can't refiell them

If you need to use dye inks you will have to switch printers, perhaps the Canon Pro series will do you well. As for the bulk ink systems, unless you are using a system by the manufacture you can expect strong degradation in the color gamut and / or image life. Sorry to say, if you want quality prints, it doesn't come cheap!

No, this ink cannot be used for sublimation. For sublimation work, search for 'epson workforce sublimation ink'.

Stay with the HP Ink, you will see over the long run the quality will be suprising. Also stay with a mid glossy paper for better results.

The shinier side is the correct side. I also use the PRO-100 and have had excellent results with the paper. Your designation of the media type as Photo Paper Pro Luster is correct. Try printing with the quality set on "Standard" versus "High", that might help reduce the ink flow. Check the bottom of the ink carriage and look at the print head to ensure there is no buildup on it. It may help to put all your printer quality options on default versus custom to see if this solves the problem. Hope this helps. Also, as DRB stated, using Canon Inks takes the guess work out. Also, refilling the ink cartridge may be the source.

I use Royal sublimation paper, I bought on Ebay. Although, you can use any sublimation paper.

My shipment included 3 black pigment containers, but no black dye. Can I use the black pigment shipped in a printer black cartridge container, or should I buy regular black dye ink to fill the regular black cartridge in a MG5520 printer?

Yes the sublimation Ink can be used for mugs. There is "mug" size paper - but you can use any sublimation paper. You can cut it after printing (to the height of the mug), and make sure you size your picture to the correct mug circumference (handle to handle - not entire circumference).

A good question to ask the vendor! The inks are not compatible with each other. (go for the dye)

You can use any paper. There are 2 dif. trays. I use it for t-shirt transfers, invoices, templates, shipping labels. I use it with every kind & size of paper. HP actually has another model that has a 5th ink cartridge and is better suited to photographs.

I have learn not to mixed inks. However if the printer has not had any sublimation inks use before, it should be okay. But you should pretty much stay with ant-UV (which really good ink, substitutes are good too, just not as vivid) or stay with the ink your are using. The problem seem to be the mixer with certain colors. With this ink (SO FAR) I haven't had any problems or clogging ~ hope this helps! bless your day!

Ball point ink, Sharpie, or pencil. I can't think of any ink that wouldn't work. Crayons or colored pencils might not show up as well.

A lot of the suppliers of ink packs have pigment black instead of dye black. You can't trust the pictures, the bottles look different and are from various places, mine said 'fresh ink jets com' on them. My own ink order had "premium pigment based universal ink" 4 oz for the black, and I haven't noticed any difference on the paper. I think the refillable ARC cart had dye ink in originally too but I'm not sure (Non-oem Ink Cartridges for Epson NX400 NX100 NX200 NX300 NX305 NX415 NX115 NX215 NX415 NX515 NX105 WORKFORCE 600 610 40 500 CX7400 CX8400 CX9400 Cx5000 CX6000 CX7000Printer 69) The black seems okay with this pigment ink instead of dye (or whatever it was) but I've only filled it once from the original so long-term who knows.

I only use the converter. The company should be able to tell you which ink cartridge to use.

Well, you know it has to say LC61 and you know you have four colors.There is Brothers ink which is the best but is too expensive if you print quite a bit.I have had good luck using generic Brothers LC 61 ink. Some say you don't getas many pages but I have never checked that closely. The only warning I wouldgive is not to buy ink until you need it. When you buy on Internet you will beable to get it within a few days. I used to buy a year ahead. I found out thatisn't a good idea.

This ink will work as well as the epson ink would work as this ink is formulated to be like EPSON ink. This is not a sublimation product so you do have to be sure that the heat transfer paper you use is good for non-sublimation ink. If the Epson ink works in your application, our ink will work too. Thank you.
