The Epson WorkForce WF-7710 is a wide-format all-in-one printer that has been permanently converted to sublimation printing with dedicated sublimation inks. This printer is NOT a general-purpose inkjet printer — it is shared equipment configured exclusively for sublimation transfers and requires extra care.
Sublimation printing uses special inks that turn into gas when heated and permanently bond with compatible materials. The printer produces mirror-image transfers on sublimation paper, which are then heat pressed onto polyester fabrics (light colors only) or polymer-coated blanks such as mugs, tumblers, metal panels, phone cases, coasters, and more. Once sublimated, images are permanent and cannot be removed or corrected.
The WF-7710 is powered by Epson's PrecisionCore printhead technology and prints borderless transfers up to 13 by 19 inches, accommodating large-format sublimation projects. The 4.3-inch color touchscreen provides easy navigation for print settings. Designs should be created in RGB color mode, and images must be mirrored before printing for textile transfers.
Colors may appear dull on the sublimation paper but will brighten after heat pressing. White areas in designs are produced by the blank material itself, not by ink. Exact color matching is not guaranteed and results vary by blank manufacturer and coating quality.
