Our take on the Brother SP-1 W Sublimation Printer
The Brother SP-1 is a desktop dye-sublimation printer for making custom shirts, mugs, tumblers, totes and coasters. It prints designs onto sublimation paper, which you then transfer with a separate heat press. It is driven by Brother's Artspira app, which bundles design tools and a starter library of sublimation artwork. It suits crafters and small makers who want an app-guided workflow; anyone expecting finished products straight out of the printer, or without a heat press, should look elsewhere.
- Artspira app combines design, editing and printing in one place
- Built-in library of sublimation designs and photo art
- Compact desktop footprint
- Wireless setup over the same network as phone or tablet
- Vibrant color output on polyester and coated blanks

Questions and answers
- Do I need a heat press to use it?
- Yes. The SP-1 only prints onto sublimation paper; a heat press transfers the design onto the blank. Budget for one before buying.
- What can I print on?
- Polyester fabrics and sublimation-coated blanks such as mugs, tumblers, coasters and mousepads. Cotton and untreated surfaces will not hold the dye.
- Is the Artspira app required?
- Yes. Design, editing and print jobs run through Artspira, and the printer and your phone or tablet must share a Wi-Fi network.
- How does it compare with a dye-sub inkjet conversion?
- It is a purpose-built sublimation machine with an app workflow, so there is no ink-system conversion to manage. Converted inkjets can print larger sheets but need third-party inks and profiles.
- What comes in the box?
- The printer, starter sublimation paper and setup materials. Blanks and a heat press are not included.
- Is it good for a small business?
- For small batches of shirts, mugs and gifts, yes. High-volume work is limited by the small sheet size and one-at-a-time heat pressing.
- What do buyers say about the Brother SP-1 W Sublimation Printer?
- Rated 4.3 out of 5 from 464 ratings.
