heads.

fading or running,such as light, water, washing. Usually use high-quality digital printing ink, the grade is generally 3-4, the better is 4-5, and the best is 5.
(3. Color saturation: When buying ink for your sublimation printer, you should only choose the ink with high color reduction. This will ensure that images
printed on the fabrics or mugs are vivid and sharp. So, please choose the ink with higher color saturation.

friendly is the guarantee of quality as well.
