Dye-sublimation is a printing process that uses heat to transfer a design onto a material such as t-shirts, mugs, coasters, etc. This is a two-step process: step 1 is printing a design on a specialty transfer paper with the Sawgrass printer, step 2 is heat-transferring the printed design onto the material.

Only materials created for dye-sublimation can be used- 100% polyester fabric, dye-sublimation polyester coated ceramics or aluminum, etc.

We have 8.5x11in and 11x17in transfer paper available for free, the maximum monthly allotment is 10-15 sheets (depending on size).

A Risograph printer looks like a photocopier but works like a screenprinter and is also referred to as a digital screenprinter. A riso works by translating information into a stencil that ink is pushed through to create a print. The printer is loaded with one color at a time so multi-color images and designs need to be printed as layers. The soy-based inks are semi-translucent so prints with multiple colors will blend together to create a broader range of colors.

We have eight colors available: Red, Florecent Pink, Yellow, Green, Seafoam Green, Blue, Federal Blue, and Black.

The riso printer works with uncoated paper only, the maximum print area is 8.25x14in. There is 8.5x11in paper in both text weight and cardstock available for free. If printing a project that requires more than 50 sheets, we ask that you provide your own paper.

The riso printer requires training before use, please check in with Knowledge Staff or contact us to set up a training appointment.
