New to Dye Sub and Lost

atty · June 13th, 2011, 09:43 AM

Sorry for the bumbling question, but the more I read, the worse it gets. Unlike most, I am not looking to print T-shirts, mugs, etc., but rather I am looking to print graphics on paper, photo or otherwise to use on clockmaking. The finished product is covered with a poured epoxy and the colors have to be brilliant. So far, inkjet and laser is not bright enough, so I'm hoping dye sub is the answer.

Given that description does anybody have any recommendations for equipment, inks, paper, .......anything you can think of. I would deeply appreciate the help.

Dye sub could work if you got clocks that were made for dye sub printing.

Printers would either be Ricoh or Epson. We tend to recommend the Ricoh printers. For clocks you might be able to start out with a Ricoh GX e3300N which is the less expensive model.
