What Our Clients Say

Carlos D., Print Shop Owner, Colombia

“We switched to JD’s sublimation ink for all our Epson F6200 printers. The output quality is sharper, and we’ve had fewer head cleanings. Our team is very satisfied.”

Fariha R., Textile Manufacturer, India

“We’ve used the large-format ink with our XP600 and i3200 printhead for over a year now. It dries fast, doesn’t clog, and saves us on reprints. Highly recommend.”

Case Study: Sports Apparel Printing in Peru

LimaWear S.A.C., a leading sportswear manufacturer in Lima, Peru, needed a reliable solution to improve print clarity and production speed for their polyester-based jerseys and uniforms. Their previous ink and paper setup led to frequent misprints, long drying times, and blurred details.

After switching to JD’s dye sublimation ink and fast-dry paper, the results were immediate. Daily output increased from 1,200 to 1,700 units, drying time dropped to around 10 seconds, and the misprint rate fell below 2%.
