How to Judge the Quality of the Sublimation Transfer Paper?

1. The transfer rate

High transfer rate is the same Transfer rate is an important indicator to judge the sublimation paper. The higher transfer rate can not only make the images more bright and clear, but also help you save the ink. As we all know, no matter what kind of sublimation ink we use, it is all not cheap.

2. Ink compatibility.

There are all kinds of sublimation ink in the market. If the sublimation paper can’t adapt to your ink well, you have to buy other inks, it will cost a lot. So, a good quality sublimation paper should as much as possible to adapt to a variety of transfer ink .

3. The drying speed

As we all know, sublimation ink are always water-based, it means that the paper will get wet when printing. There’s no doubt that a high drying speed will make the user to use the paper more easier , and can facilitate continuous printing to enhance the speed of delivery.

4. The degree of warping

Unti-curl is always a quality of good sublimation paper. The sublimation transfer paper is a coated paper , the expansion rate of the coating surface and back paper inconsistency under dry and high temperature , will cause one side warping . If the paper becomes warped , first , the printer can not feed the paper. Second , will cause the transfer failure , it’s also a waste of money.

5. The wrinkling of the printing surface

You will find that the printing surface of some paper are wrinkling. This is very dangerous for the print heads, because there will be a frictions between the wrinkling part and the print head.

6. The dirty spot on the paper

Some base paper will have some dirty spots on the surface, and sometimes it can’t be covered by the coating, it will harm the pure color printing , but for colorful picture printing , there’s no influence .

7. The stability of the quality .

The quality of the paper is closely related with our user’s sublimation ink , printing date setting and the transfer machine’s parameter setting . The quality fluctuation will force our users to following the adjustment at the same time , such as he need to adjust the original color data , printing data etc.
