Do you have to use a special ink, or can this just be put through a regular ink jet printer?

Yes You can just use home ink jet printer to print this out. There is no special ink required

You most certainly can color on the ink jet plastic before and after it is run through the printer. If you want to color on it before its printed you will need to use a water based marker. Don't do a lot of scrubbing when coloring as it may remove the coating. If you want to finish or color places after it is printed on, (like adding a name) can use a permanent marker on the printed areas, and a water based marker on places that do not have any ink jet ink applied.

I have an ink jet printer and it was fine. No smudging at all. I was very please with the result.

I've not tried this, but seems like reviews I've read indicated no. However, it uses much less ink than most printers. We're very pleased with ours.

I think it has to be an inkjet. That is what I have and it worked great. It turned out really good. I made sure I had new ink in before I printed it. It worked out great.

The Office Jet is not a photo printer like a Photo Jet. It does not have a separate photo black ink cartridge. However, I have printed some photos with it, and I was very satisfied with the results. If you want mainly a photo printer, buy a Photo Jet. If you want an excellent quality standard color printer and will occasionally print photos, I highly recommend this printer.

I just use my regular ink jet printer ink. I have found if pressed correctly with heat press, it turns out well. This is not the right paper for sublimation inks, but I don't know about the others you mentioned. ;) Hope this helps

This answer is a qualified no! If you look at the box the paper comes in, you will note "Ink Jet" printed on the right side front. There is a significant difference in the chemistry and process between a laser printer and an inkjet printer. You may be able to run it through the laser, but it will likely smear and take many hours to dry if it doesn't smear. There are papers made for laser printers, but your best bet is to buy an inkjet printer. It's an inkjet world! Ron

I know what the original question is about - some printers do not allow you to print if any of the ink cartridge is out of ink. I have the same question - hopefully someone knows the answer for this specific printer.

I have a T-shirt shop and use a HP Officejet Pro 8610 e-All-in-One PrinterIt uses the pigment ink which make colors more vibrant and last longer.I didn't think it would matter, but it really does, it made a big difference.Also the ink seems to last so much longer than any other printer I have used.Just as important, if not more, is how and what you use to apply the heat transfer.Good Luck

There is two different kinds, the ink jet and the laser printer. I purchased the ink jet kind and I like it you just have to trim the remaining unprinted area

it works fine with any paper suitable for ink jets. choose your paper based on your intended use... normal printer paper for standard print tasks, photo paper for picture printing, etc. I'd start with standard printer paper then buy specialty paper as needed.

You can get it direct from XPRO. I just use regular ink I can buy by the pint. Just as good, and a lot less expensive.

I am not 100% sure but that is what i bought it for, I am just waiting for my ink to come. I do know that if you are going to try it you need sublimation ink which does not come with this printer. You should NOT use any other ink in the printer if you are going to use the sublimation ink in the machine. this process does not work on cotton materials it must be a polyester or a poly blend also there is a place that sells it cheaper i paid 169 i think

Yes. Every printer I have seen comes with ink. It does not last as long as the standard size, but you get quite a few copies. It does not come with a USB cord so you will need that.

Nope- it is an ink-jet printer. You much use coated disks for ink-jet. You can get both the large hole and small hole ones from Amazon.
