I'm afraid my personal experience with Sublimation inks is pretty much nill so I can't help you on this score..

A good place to try though would be:
- Steve's Forums - DyeSub printers

One thing to note though... I'm pretty sure the printer you've identified would not actually work with dyesublimation inks so you might well want to check that first. I'm also pretty sure that dyesub is not something that's actually supportable using CIS.. At least not yet.

You can used 1280 with sublimation ink, but please take care the minimum ink level because sublimation ink (disperse dye) more dificult to disolve when dry in your printhead

Could you provide a little more info on what dye sub ink and technology are like as I'd got the impression they were a very different from InkJet but it seems I've been misinformed..

Thanks in advance Smile

I am using InkRepublic's 1280 and R800 CIS.

1280 with sublimation ink to do heat transfer.

It works with tropical graphic sublimation ink.
