Precautions for using ECO sublimation paper

When using ECO sublimation paper, you need to pay attention to the following matters:
1. Storage
Environmental requirements: The transfer paper should be stored in a dry, cool, and well-ventilated place. Avoid direct sunlight, because long-term exposure to light may cause the dye to change and affect the transfer effect. At the same time, keep away from humid environments to prevent the paper from absorbing moisture and becoming soft and deformed. The appropriate storage temperature is generally between 15℃ - 25℃, and the relative humidity is controlled at around 40% - 60%.
Packaging protection: If the transfer paper has the original packaging, try to keep the integrity of the original packaging. The original packaging usually has certain moisture-proof and light-proof functions. If it has been opened, it should be resealed in time with a sealed bag or plastic wrap to reduce contact with the air and prevent dust and moisture from invading. Avoid storing the transfer paper with chemicals to avoid contamination.

2. Printing process
Ink selection: Special sublimation ink must be used for printing. Ordinary ink cannot achieve the effect of thermal sublimation transfer, and may even damage the printer and transfer paper. When choosing thermal sublimation ink, make sure that it is of reliable quality, bright colors and good stability.
Printer settings: According to the specifications of the transfer paper and the model of the printer, correctly set the printer parameters. Adjust the print quality, color mode, etc. to obtain the best printing effect. At the same time, the printer should be maintained and cleaned regularly to ensure the normal operation of the print head and avoid problems such as blockage and disconnection.

3. Transfer link
Temperature and pressure control: In the process of thermal sublimation transfer, the control of temperature and pressure is crucial. Different substrates may require different transfer temperatures and pressures, which should be set strictly in accordance with the operating instructions of the transfer equipment. Excessive temperature may damage the substrate or distort the color of the pattern; excessive pressure may cause the transfer paper to break or the pattern to blur.
Substrate preparation: Make sure that the surface of the substrate is clean and flat, free of impurities such as oil, dust, etc. For substrates such as textiles, appropriate pretreatment, such as ironing and cleaning, should be carried out to improve the transfer effect. During the transfer process, the transfer paper should be closely attached to the substrate to avoid bubbles or wrinkles.
In short, only by using and storing ECO sublimation paper correctly and paying attention to the details of each link can you obtain high-quality transfer effects.
