Johnson Plastics Plus Sublimation Paper (100 Sheets)

Johnson Plastics Plus sublimation paper is engineered to maximize ink transfer efficiency while minimizing common issues in the sublimation process, such as warping and ghosting. This paper ensures that designs transfer crisply and cleanly to both hard and soft substrates, resulting in high-quality finished products with stunning full-color results.

The specially-formulated paper also significantly reduces ink waste. That means more of the sublimation ink makes its way onto the product, rather than remaining soaked in the paper. This translates to cost savings and a financial boost to the bottom line over time.

Johnson Plastics Plus has been a leader in sublimation papers and supplies for more than 30 years. Sublimation products that carry the Johnson Plastics Plus name have been tested to work with a wide range of sublimation printers, including leading brands such as Epson, Sawgrass, and more. Printing on Johnson Plastics Plus sublimation paper ensures outstanding transfer results every time.

What kind of paper is used for sublimation?

Sublimation paper is specifically designed for use in sublimation printing. It's a unique, coated transfer paper that's used to transfer the ink onto the substrate when heated. Please see the Sublimation FAQ Page for questions and answers about sublimation paper selection and use.

Can I use sublimation paper on a regular printer?

Sublimation paper is not compatible with regular printers since it requires sublimation ink and a heat press to transfer the design onto the chosen medium. Regular printers typically use dye or pigment-based inks that do not work with sublimation paper's unique properties.

What is paper sublimation?

Paper sublimation is a printing process where sublimation ink is transferred from special paper to a material or substrate through heat and pressure, resulting in a full-color, durable graphic imprint.

Is sublimation paper the same as heat transfer paper?

Sublimation paper differs from heat transfer paper: it is designed for dye sublimation that chemically bonds ink to the material, while heat transfer paper applies ink on top of the substrate.

What side of the sublimation paper do you print on?

You should print your image/transfer on the bright white side (the other side is dull), and remember to mirror the image as well. If you're unsure which side is the bright white, bend your paper in half to compare one side to the other. Or keep your paper in the packaging, so the print side is always up, with the label indicating the print side.
