I don’t know what daijialede’s answer is based on. We are actually using an EX3 printer with thermal transfer ink to print on thermal transfer paper. There is no problem at all.
Most thermal transfer inks can only be used with EPSON nozzle structure printers (the nozzle is EPSON's patent). Currently, all EPSON inkjet printers can be used for thermal transfer printing.
In addition, Go down to the 2nd floor. What you are talking about is actually offset printing rather than thermal transfer printing. It is only suitable for printing pure cotton or Khmer fabrics. In addition, the cost of transfer paper is several times that of sublimation transfer paper.
