| Dye Sublimation Ink |
An dye ink in which the main carrier is water, with colorants made from either dyes or pigments. Dyes are bright and cheap but fade quickly, pigments cost more but resist fading if you look after the prints. Photographic quality pigment inks can resist fading for a century or more if you keep them away from direct sunlight and pollutants.

Inks that are intended for absorption into polyester textiles or coatings on solid objects. They are printed by piezo heads, often onto a temporary carrier heat transfer paper. After drying the paper is pressed against the polyester materials and heat is applied. The ink vaporises (sublimates) and is absorbed by the polyester, forming a strong permanent colour bond.
Large rolls of textiles can be pressed against the transfer paper in heated roller devices called calenders, while the carrier paper is peeled away. Smaller items tend to use heat presses with flat plates. Shaped heat presses can be used for cylindrical objects, especially drinking mugs.

Direct dye sublimation printing is also possible, normally onto polyester textiles. Here the material is fed into the inkjet printer and ink is jetted straight onto it. After printing the image is fixed in a heat press or rollers, so it sublimates into the fibres textiles (garments, furnishings, soft signage), plus any solid and reasonably flat or simply curved surface that can be polyester coated and placed into a heat press. Examples are mobile phone covers, tablet PC covers, plaques and signs made from plastic, wood, glass, metal, ceramic mugs and plates, etc.
