Used Dye Sublimation Printers in Ohio, USA

Overview

Dye sublimation wide-format printers are high-production machines that transfer dye-based inks into polyester-coated substrates via heat, producing durable, continuous-tone images for textiles, soft signage, and hard substrates with sublimation coatings. These printers are valued for fast throughput, accurate color reproduction, and compatibility with heat presses or calender finishing. They range from roll-to-roll textile systems to hybrid printers for rigid and flexible media used in sportswear, soft furnishings, and promotional graphics.
