• What you are looking for is called Sublimation. You can purchase that type of ink for it, just do not use the included ink and put the Sublimation ink the well instead. I personally did not do this with mine, as printing color photos was a higher priority. The Sublimation ink on photo paper is more faded as it was designed to be heated which brings the color out. PS- my original though was use that ink, but research said once you do, the printer should only be used for that.

• Hello Peety. The ET-8550 uses a combination of dye and pigment-based ink and works with Epson Iron-on Cool Peel Transfer paper. Please note we have not tested other brands of transfer paper with the machine. If you plan to use 3rd party paper, we recommend trying a small batch first to ensure it works properly and has satisfactory image quality. Regards, Syd - The Epson Team.
