- What can the Brother SP-1 print on?
- It prints sublimation transfers onto paper, which you then heat-press onto polyester fabric or polymer-coated blanks like mugs, tumblers and phone cases. It does not print directly on cotton or uncoated items.
- Do I need a heat press?
- Yes. The printer only makes the transfer sheet. You need a heat press or mug press to apply the design to the blank.
- Does it work without a phone?
- You can print from a computer, but the Artspira app is the main design route. The touchscreen handles settings and basic operation.
- What comes in the bundle?
- The bundle includes the SP-1 printer, four 47 ml sublimation ink cartridges and 10 sheets of sublimation paper, plus the extra 100-sheet paper pack.
- How is it different from a converted inkjet sublimation printer?
- The SP-1 is built for sublimation out of the box with dedicated inks and a smaller footprint. Converted inkjets often print faster and take larger paper, but need conversion and more setup.
- What paper sizes does it take?
- It accepts A4, Letter, Legal and user-defined sizes, with a 100-sheet input tray for standard paper weights.
